Currently the success path in function vfio_fsl_mc_reflck_attach is
returning an uninitialized value in variable ret. Fix this by setting
this to zero to indicate success.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")

Looks correct to me, unless Diana would rather set the initial value to
zero instead. Thanks,

I prefer to initialize the variable to 0 when it's defined. I'll send a
patch for it.
