Not sure about this patch. I don't think you can fix the issue you mentioned.
Probably only hns3 does speed check in dev_configure. I don't see this in other drivers, not in i40e/ice/mlx.
I guess it's because if it's not supported speed, it will just be UNKNOWN and user can config again?

BTW, even if this behavior is accepted by others, still some comments below.

Why don't you just add restoring all ports speed here and then "break"? No matter one dev fails or not, all ports will do reconfig from your code logic.
And you type rollback wrongly.
