The return type here should be not supported, or IXGBE_NOT_IMPLEMENTED,
not no permissions.

Since there is currently no cases where you would be getting the rss_key
without the RETA you might just want to combine this function with
ixgbevf_get_reta so you only take the lock once and process both
messages in one pass instead of having to bounce the spinlock.
