Subject: net: switchdev: fix return code of fdb_dump stub

From: Dragos Tatulea <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 24cb7055a3066634a0f3fa0cd6a4780652905d35 ]

rtnl_fdb_dump always expects an index to be returned by the ndo_fdb_dump op, but when CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV is off, it returns an error.

Fix that by returning the given unmodified idx.

A similar fix was 0890cf6cb6ab ("switchdev: fix return value of switchdev_port_fdb_dump in case of error") but for the CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV=y case.

Fixes 45d4122ca7cd ("switchdev: add support for fdb add/del/dump via switchdev_port_obj ops.")
