'ret' is known to be 0 here.
No error code is available, so just remove it from the error message.

Fixes: 72330b0eeefc ("i.MX Framebuffer: Use readl/writel instead of direct pointer deref")

Are you using this driver, or did you find that problem using some
static checker?
No, I'm not using this driver AFAIK.

It has been spotted by coccinelle with a hand-made script which tries to find places where error code is used before being initialized.

The script in it-self is not really interesting. It is easy to write and my own version trigger way to much false positives.
