Currently, if function adds an existing unicast mac address, eventhough
driver will not add this address into hardware, but it will return 0 in
function hclge_add_uc_addr_common(). It will cause the state of this
unicast mac address is ACTIVE in driver, but it should be in TO-ADD state.
To fix this problem, function hclge_add_uc_addr_common() returns -EEXIST
if mac address is existing, and delete two error log to avoid printing
them all the time after this modification.
