[PATCH][next] net: hns3: Fix return of uninitialized variable ret

From: Colin King <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-21 10:02:19

From: Colin Ian King <redacted>

In the unlikely event that rule_cnt is zero the variable ret is
not assigned a value and function hclge_dbg_dump_fd_tcam can end
up returning an unitialized value in ret. Fix this by explicitly
setting ret to zero before the for-loop.
