From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@xxxxxxxxxx> Commit bffaa916588e ("net/mlx5: E-Switch, Add control for inline mode") added inline mode checking to esw_offloads_start() with a warning printed out in case there is a problem. Tne inline mode checking was done even after mlx5_eswitch_enable_locked() call failed, which is pointless. Later on, commit 8c98ee77d911 ("net/mlx5e: E-Switch, Add extack messages to devlink callbacks") converted the error/warning prints to extack setting, which caused that the inline mode check error to overwrite possible previous extack message when mlx5_eswitch_enable_locked() failed. User then gets confusing error message. Fix this by skipping check of inline mode after mlx5_eswitch_enable_locked() call failed.
