[PATCH] rds: send: Fix dead code in rds_sendmsg

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Wed Jul 25 2018 - 11:22:32 EST


Currently, code at label *out* is unreachable. Fix this by updating
variable *ret* with -EINVAL, so the jump to *out* can be properly
executed instead of directly returning from function.

Fixes: 1e2b44e78eea ("rds: Enable RDS IPv6 support")
