Subject: [PATCH 5/7] perf intel-pt: Fix next 'err' value, walking trace

Code after label 'next:' in intel_pt_walk_trace() assumes 'err' is zero,
but it may not be, if arrived at via a 'goto'. Ensure it is zero.

Fixes: 7c1b16ba0e26e6 ("perf intel-pt: Add support for decoding FUP/TIP only")
Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # v5.15+
