The switchdev design implies that a software error should not happen in the commit phase since it must have been previously reported in the prepare phase. If an hardware error occurs during the commit phase, there is nothing switchdev can do about it.
The DSA layer separates port_fdb_prepare and port_fdb_add for simplicity and convenience. If an hardware error occurs during the commit phase, there is no need to report it outside the DSA driver itself.
Make the DSA port_fdb_add routine return void for explicitness.
