Subject:  [PATCH 7/8] aoe: initialize sysminor to avoid compiler warning

Because the minor_get and related functions use the return values
for errors, the compiler doesn't know that sysminor will always
either 1) be initialized in aoedev_by_aoeaddr by the call to
minor_get, or 2) be unused as the "goto out" is executed.

This patch avoids the compiler warning.
