Subject: nilfs2: introduce secondary super block fix
From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This fixes a missing substitution of error code in
nilfs2-introduce-secondary-super-block.patch, and deletes an unnecessary
initialization done for the same error variable.
The problem comes to surface if the blocksize recorded in super block is
not supported by hardware. In that case, init_nilfs() function will
wrongly return with a success code and would trigger a kernel fault.
