[PATCH net] be2net: propagate bridge config query errors
From: Avi Weiss
Date: Sun Aug 09 2026 - 03:22:04 EST
be_ndo_bridge_getlink() returns success when be_cmd_get_hsw_config()
fails, hiding the error from rtnetlink users.
Return the normalized command status instead.
Fixes: a77dcb8c8ff0 ("be2net: set and query VEB/VEPA mode of the PF interface")
