[PATCH next] afs: Fix error code in afs_alloc_cell()
From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Wed Mar 05 2025 - 10:05:44 EST
Return the error code if idr_alloc_cyclic() fails. Currently it
potentially could return either -ENOMEM or an uninitialized variable.
Fixes: 72c52e46a517 ("afs: Change dynroot to create contents on demand")
