Several functions in the iAVF core files take status values of the enum iavf_status and convert them into integer values. This leads to confusion as functions return both Linux errno values and status codes intermixed. Reporting status codes as if they were "errno" values can lead to confusion when reviewing error logs. Additionally, it can lead to unexpected behavior if a return value is not interpreted properly. Fix this by introducing iavf_status_to_errno, a switch that explicitly converts from the status codes into an appropriate error value. Also introduce a virtchnl_status_to_errno function for the one case where we were returning both virtchnl status codes and iavf_status codes in the same function.

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.
