net/mlx5: Use mlx5_cmd_do() in core create_{cq,dct}
mlx5_core_create_{cq/dct} functions are non-trivial mlx5 commands functions. They check command execution status themselves and hide valuable FW failure information. For mlx5_core/eth kernel user this is what we actually want, but for a devx/rdma user the hidden information is essential and should be propagated up to the caller, thus we convert these commands to use mlx5_cmd_do to return the FW/driver and command outbox status as is, and let the caller decide what to do with it. For kernel callers of mlx5_core_create_{cq/dct} or those who only care about the binary status (FAIL/SUCCESS) they must check status themselves via mlx5_cmd_check() to restore the current behavior. err = mlx5_create_cq(in, out) err = mlx5_cmd_check(err, in, out) if (err) // handle err For DEVX users and those who care about full visibility, They will just propagate the error to user space, and app can check if err == -EREMOTEIO, then outbox.{status,syndrome} are valid. API Note: mlx5_cmd_check() must be used by kernel users since it allows the driver to intercept the command execution status and return a driver simulated status in case of driver induced error handling or reset/recovery flows.
