[PATCH] powerpc/kexec: Fix build failure from uninitialised variable

clang 14 won't build because ret is uninitialised and can be returned if
both prop and fdtprop are NULL.

Not sure what should be returned here, EINVAL seemed reasonable for a
passed property not existing.

Also, damn it Alexey, I mentioned this in my review:

Consider yourself lucky I'm no longer your dictator (if you don't already)

Not sure. My understanding is that fdt_delprop() and fdt_setprop() 
return one of the FDT_ERR_ defined in scripts/dtc/libfdt/libfdt.h

Do we need 'ret' at all ?

It would be more clear to return directly instead of going through a 
local var :

	if (fdtprop && !prop)
		return fdt_delprop(fdt, node_offset, propname);
	else if (prop)
		return fdt_setprop(fdt, node_offset, propname, prop, len);
	else
		return -FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND;

  
  	prop = of_get_property(dn, propname, &len);
  	fdtprop = fdt_getprop(fdt, node_offset, propname, &fdtlen);
