ethdev: move non null judgment of ops function pointer ahead

  From: "Wei Hu (Xavier)" <xavier.huwei@huawei.com>

This patch moves the following judgement statement to the first half of
the function named rte_eth_dev_set_vlan_offload, so we can avoid changing
the content of dev->data->dev_conf.rxmode.offloads even when the pointer
named dev->dev_ops->vlan_offload_set is NULL:
RTE_FUNC_PTR_OR_ERR_RET(*dev->dev_ops->vlan_offload_set, -ENOTSUP);

I agree this side affect is a defect, thanks for spotting.

Above approach would work, but also I think it was good approach to return
success (0) when no change at all requested, we are loosing it here.

What do you think,
- Update a local 'dev_offloads' variable, instead of directly updating the
device config data
- if no change requested, "mask == 0", return success
- if change requested, check the 'vlan_offload_set' dev_ops in this stage
- assign the local 'dev_offloads' to 'dev->data->dev_conf.rxmode.offloads' and
call the dev_ops
- On error recover the 'dev->data->dev_conf.rxmode.offloads' to 'orig_offloads'

This way both side affect can be prevented and API returns success if no change
requested.

I agree your opinion and will send V2.
Thanks
