Subject: mm/zswap: add return value in zswap_frontswap_load

Clang warns:

mm/zswap.c:1271:6: warning: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized
whenever 'if' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (!entry->length) {
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/zswap.c:1322:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        return ret;
               ^~~
mm/zswap.c:1271:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always
false
        if (!entry->length) {
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/zswap.c:1259:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' to silence this
warning
        int ret;
               ^
                = 0
1 warning generated.

Prior to "mm/zswap: add the flag can_sleep_mapped", this path always
returned 0. Restore that so we are not returning uninitialized memory.
