Instead of always returning -ENOPKG, decode the firmware error
code further when the HWRM_NVM_INSTALL_UPDATE firmware call fails.
Return a more suitable error code to userspace and log an error
in dmesg.
This is version 2 of the earlier patch that was reverted:
02acd39953 ("bnxt_en: parse result field when NVRAM package install fails")
In this new version, if the call is made through devlink instead of
ethtool, we'll also set the error message in extack.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
