Subject: [net-next 07/15] e1000e: potentially incorrect return for e1000_set_d3_lplu_state_ich8lan

From: Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@...el.com>

In the unlikely event that e1e_wphy() returns an error, the returned error
code is not propogated to the caller of e1000_set_d3_lplu_state_ich8lan().
With this change, there is a rare possibility that ret_val might not get
set so it must be initialized.
