Commit 2ccc1c1ccc671b ("ice: Remove excess error variables") merged
the usage of 'status' and 'err' variables into single one in
function ice_set_mac_address(). Unfortunately this causes
a regression when call of ice_fltr_add_mac() returns -EEXIST because
this return value does not indicate an error in this case but
value of 'err' value remains to be -EEXIST till the end of
the function and is returned to caller.

Prior this commit this does not happen because return value of
ice_fltr_add_mac() was stored to 'status' variable first and
if it was -EEXIST then 'err' remains to be zero.

The patch fixes the problem by reset 'err' to zero when
ice_fltr_add_mac() returns -EEXIST.

Style wise, don't we typically use {} for all branches if its needed on one?

I'm ok takin this fix as-is now and doing the {} fix up afterwards if we want to avoid delay.

Thanks,
Jake

Thanks Ivan, This looks fine. It is a regression as I checked since
driver used to return success in such case. It seems that the only
way to have EEXIST here is when the same MAC is requested, I'd also
consider just return 0 here to skip later firwmare write which seems
redundant here.

Again, i'd recommend imperative mood. Besides, good catch!

+1, please add braces around second branch as well.
