[PATCH net-next v2] selftests: net: exit with test failure status

[Hangbin Liu]

From: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxxx>

The changed four tests can print [FAIL] subtests while still exiting with
status 0. Their log_test(), aka log_test_expected() in lib.sh, helpers
record a failure in ret, but the scripts never propagate ret to the exit
code, so a kselftest runner treats the run as a pass.

Initialize ret and exit with it at the end of each script so failed
subtests are reflected in the exit status.

The patch doesn't fix a regression, nothing is failing (or passing when it
shouldn't) because of it. So target the patch to net-next.
