[PATCH] kernel/groups.c: remove return value of set_groups

[Wang YanQing]

After commit 6307f8fee295b364716d28686df6e69c2fee751a
("security: remove dead hook task_setgroups"), set_groups
will always return zero, so we could just remove return
value of set_groups.

This patch reduce code size, and simplfy code logician
to use set_groups, because we don't need to check its
return value anymore.

 I can't find out the maintainer of kernel/group.c,
 so... I hope I haven't send and cc to the wrong people :)
