Subject: [PATCH] cachefiles: fix inverted ASSERTion.

bmap() returns a negative result precisely when a_ops->bmap is NULL.

A recent patch converted

ASSERT(inode->i_mapping->a_ops->bmap);

to an assertion that bmap(inode, ...) returns a negative number.
This inverts the sense of the assertion.
So change it back : ASSERT(ret == 0)

Fixes: 10d83e11a582 ("cachefiles: drop direct usage of ->bmap method.")
