[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix error notification for large patterns

[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix error notification for large patterns

[Gregory Etelson]

HWS has limited resources to translate flow pattern.
When pattern translation does not fit STE, HWS translation fails with
E2BIG error.

The patch verifies that the E2BIG error value is kept during flow
error notification.
