Variable ret is set to zero, but this value is never read as it is
overwritten or not used later on, hence it is a redundant assignment
and can be removed.

Clean up the following clang-analyzer warning:

fs/btrfs/extent_io.c:5357:4: warning: Value stored to 'ret' is never
read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores].

This leaves the scope where the value of 'ret' has been used for
something and it's reset to 0 for clarity. This is a pattern that we use
and will not change it just to silence clang analyzer.
