Now ixgbevf_write/read_posted_mbx use -IXGBE_ERR_MBX as the initiative return value, but it's incorrect, cause in ixgbevf_vlan_rx_add_vid(), it use err == IXGBE_ERR_MBX, the err returned from mac.ops.set_vfta, and in ixgbevf_set_vfta_vf, it return from write/read_posted. so we should initialize err with IXGBE_ERR_MBX, instead of -IXGBE_ERR_MBX.
With this fix, the other functions that called it also can work well, cause they only care about if err is 0 or not.
