This code triggers a static checker warning about missed error codes.
It's slightly tricky that we fall back to PIO so let's silence the
checker and add a comment for anyone who is confused.

I won't feel offended at all if people don't think it's worth applying
this patch.

The 'ret' is initialized to 0 in the function to handle this.
After looking at the code again I see that pic32_spi_dma_config() does
error prints for failures.

A comment might be enough here if it is even needed.

Yeah.  The "ret = 0;" is just to silence static checkers.  It doesn't
change the object code (except line numbers).  I'm not emotionally
invested in this patch so if it's too much then that's fine.
