A refactor of the i40e_vc_config_promiscuous_mode_msg function moved the check for un-trusted VF into another function. We have to lie to an un-trusted VF that its request to set promiscuous mode is successful even when it is not because we don't want the VF to find out its trust status this way. With the refactor, we were running into a case where even though we were not setting promiscuous mode for an un-trusted VF, we still printed a misleading message that it was successful. This patch fixes that by ensuring that a success message is printed on the host side only when the promiscuous mode change has been successful.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
