futex: Return error code instead of assigning it without effect
The check on the rt_waiter and top_waiter->pi_state is assigning an error
return code to ret but this later gets re-assigned, hence the check is
ineffective.
Return -EINVAL rather than assigning it to ret which was the original
intent.
Fixes: dc7109aaa233 ("futex: Validate waiter correctly in futex_proxy_trylock_atomic()")
Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
