[PATCH][next] octeontx2-af: Fix return of uninitialized variable err

From: Colin King
Date: Wed Nov 18 2020 - 08:25:09 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the variable err may be uninitialized if several of the if
statements are not executed in function nix_tx_vtag_decfg and a garbage
value in err is returned. Fix this by initialized ret at the start of
the function.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: 9a946def264d ("octeontx2-af: Modify nix_vtag_cfg mailbox to support TX VTAG entries")
