Subject: [PATCH 4.8 033/140] dm: return correct error code in dm_resume()s retry loop

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Minfei Huang <mnghuan@...il.com>

commit 8dc23658b7aaa8b6b0609c81c8ad75e98b612801 upstream.

dm_resume() will return success (0) rather than -EINVAL if
!dm_suspended_md() upon retry within dm_resume().

Reset the error code at the start of dm_resume()'s retry loop.
Also, remove a useless assignment at the end of dm_resume().

Fixes: ffcc393641 ("dm: enhance internal suspend and resume interface")
