Currently the variable err may be uninitialized if several of the if
statements are not executed in function nix_tx_vtag_decfg and a garbage
value in err is returned.  Fix this by initialized ret at the start of
the function.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: 9a946def264d ("octeontx2-af: Modify nix_vtag_cfg mailbox to support TX VTAG entries")
