[PATCH] media: dvbdev: Avoid using uninitialized ret in dvb_register_device()

[Nathan Chancellor]

When CONFIG_DVB_DYNAMIC_MINORS is not enabled, clang warns (or errors
with CONFIG_WERROR=y):

  drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c:554:10: warning: variable 'ret' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
    554 |                 return ret;
        |                        ^~~

Use the return code -EINVAL directly, like the CONFIG_DVB_DYNAMIC_MINORS
block does.
