The commit 6c167f582ea9 ("i40e: Refactor and cleanup i40e_open(), adding i40e_vsi_open()") introduced a new function i40e_vsi_open() with the regression by a typo. Due to the commit, the wrong error code would be passed to i40e_open(). Fix this error in i40e_vsi_open() by turning the macro into a negative value so that i40e_open() could return the pertinent error code correctly.
