[PATCH v9 07/20] virtio-net: Do not propagate ebpf-rss-fds errors

[Akihiko Odaki]

Propagating ebpf-rss-fds errors has several problems.

First, it makes device realization fail and disables the fallback to the
conventional eBPF loading.

Second, it leaks memory by making device realization fail without
freeing memory already allocated.

Third, the convention is to set an error when a function returns false,
but virtio_net_load_ebpf_fds() and virtio_net_load_ebpf() returns false
without setting an error, which is confusing.

Remove the propagation to fix these problems.

Fixes: 0524ea0510a3 ("ebpf: Added eBPF initialization by fds.")
