Subject: [PATCH 5.3 019/197] nvme: fix an error code in nvme_init_subsystem()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit bc4f6e06a90ea016855fc67212b4d500145f0b8a ]

"ret" should be a negative error code here, but it's either success or
possibly uninitialized.

Fixes: 32fd90c40768 ("nvme: change locking for the per-subsystem controller list")
