Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v5 3/6] bpf: Use 0 instead of NOT_INIT for btf_struct_access() writes

Returning a bpf_reg_type only makes sense in the context of a BPF_READ.
For writes, prefer to explicitly return 0 for clarity.

Note that is non-functional change as it just so happened that NOT_INIT
== 0.
