[PATCH 2/5] blk-throttle: Move an assignment for the variable "ret" in tg_set_conf()

A local variable was set to an error code before a concrete error situation
was detected. Thus move the corresponding assignment into an if branch
to indicate a software failure there.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
