It seems you are right. b3638e1a76648 ("net/mlx5_core: Introduce forward to next priority action")
added that code and it seems from the start it was wrong.
Looking at the code it looks like we always use IS_ERR() to check the result
of mlx5_add_flow_rules() except in: mlx5e_tc_add_nic_flow() which should also
be fixed.
Thanks Jason.
