[PATCH] net: switchdev: don't abort unsupported operations

From: Vivien Didelot
Date: Sat Jul 11 2015 - 02:59:28 EST


There is no need to abort attribute setting or object addition, if the
prepare phase returned operation not supported.

Thus, abort these two transactions only if the error is not -EOPNOTSUPP.
