netfs: Fix potential uninitialised var in netfs_extract_user_iter()
commit 7e3d8db upstream.
In netfs_extract_user_iter(), if it's given a zero-length iterator, it will
fall through the loop without setting ret, and so the error handling
behaviour will be undefined, depending on whether ret happens to be
negative. The value of ret then propagates back up the callstack.
Fix this by presetting ret to 0.
