The migrate_to_ram() callback should always succeed, but in rare cases
can fail usually returning VM_FAULT_SIGBUS. Commit 16ce101db85d
("mm/memory.c: fix race when faulting a device private page")
incorrectly stopped passing the return code up the stack. Fix this by
setting the ret variable, restoring the previous behaviour on
migrate_to_ram() failure.

Hi Andrew, I noticed my series needs another small fix which I'm
hoping you can apply for v6.1-rcX. Thanks (and sorry for not catching
this sooner).
