I think we should not return an error here: when we disable all_multi, there are
2 cases:

1/ promiscuous is off: no issue here, we do as before, we ask the PF to disable
   the all_multi mode

2/ promiscuous is on: we have nothing to ask to the PF, because we still want
   to stay in promisc mode. We just need to remember that all_multi is disabled,
   and this is done already done by the ethdev layer.

On the PF dpdk driver, the behavior is the same: we can enable or disable
promisc and all_multi independently, and changing the all_multi value when
promisc is enabled is allowed and does not impact the rx traffic.


Thanks,
Olivier
