Subject: [PATCH -next] bus: mhi: ep: Fix an ignored error return from ida_alloc()

The return from the call to ida_alloc() is int, it can be a negative
error code, however this is being assigned to an unsigned int variable
'mhi_cntrl->index', so assign the value to 'ret' concurrently to solve
this problem without affecting other functions.

Eliminate the following coccicheck warning:
./drivers/bus/mhi/ep/main.c:1422:5-21: WARNING: Unsigned expression
compared with zero: mhi_cntrl -> index < 0
