No need to set 'err' here. This is just a temporary variable used for some
local checks later in the function. 'ret' is the value that will be returned,
and that is already initialized to -EINVAL which should be fine.

Same comment as with the ext2 case - no need to set 'err', 'ret' is -EINVAL
and has you covered.
