ext4: "ret" may be used uninitialized in ext4_lazyinit_thread()
Newer GCC's reported the following build warning:
fs/ext4/super.c: In function 'ext4_lazyinit_thread':
fs/ext4/super.c:2702: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function
Fix it by removing the need for the ret variable in the first place.
