Hi Dipendra,
Please add a fixes tag here (no blank line between it and your
Signed-off-by line).

As you have posted more than one patch for this driver, with very similar,
not overly complex or verbose changes, it might make sense to combine them
into a single patch. Or, if not, to bundle them up into a patch-set with a
cover letter.
Regarding the patch subject, looking at git history, I think
an appropriate prefix would be 'octeontx2-pf:'. I would go for
something like this:
Subject: [PATCH net v2] octeontx2-pf: handle otx2_mbox_get_rsp errors
As for the code changes themselves, module the nits below, I agree the
error handling is consistent with that elsewhere in the same functions, and
is correct.
