[PATCH] net/ixgbe: do not return internal code in rte_eth_dev_reset

[Luca Boccassi]

In case of a temporary failure the ixgbe driver can return the internal
error IXGBE_ERR_RESET_FAILED to the application. Instead, return
-EAGAIN as per the public API specification.

I think it's better not to change this in base code which are assumed to only return IXGBE_ERR_xxx
And also this is not the only place in ixgbe_reset_hw_vf that will propagated the internal error.
Why not convert it in "eth_ixgbevf_dev_init" which looks like a right place?

Change title to "net/ixgbe: do not return internal code" to avoid check-git-log error.
