PCI: hotplug: ensure a consistent return value in error case
Typically, the return value desired for the failure of a function with an
integer return value is a negative integer. In these cases, the return
value is sometimes a negative integer and sometimes 0, due to a subsequent
initialization of the return variable within the loop.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is:

//<smpl>
@r exists@
identifier ret;
position p;
constant C;
expression e1,e3,e4;
statement S;

ret = -C
... when != ret = e3

if (\(ret != 0\|ret < 0\|ret > 0\) || ...) { ... return ...; }
... when != ret = e3

return ret;
}
