The return value for __mb_check_buddy should be a integer. Found this by
code review.

Fixes: 5354b2af3406 ("ext4: allow ext4_get_group_info() to fail")

Hi yangerkun,
I think the return value of __mb_check_buddy is actually not used and can
be removed. See [1] for details :). Thanks!

Hi Kemeng,

Yeah, the return value nowdays help nothing, it's a good choice to 
remove them all.

Thanks.
