mm/pagewalk.c: prevent positive return value of walk_page_test() from being passed to callers

walk_page_test() is purely pagewalk's internal stuff, and its positive
return values are not intended to be passed to the callers of pagewalk.

However, in the current code if the last vma in the do-while loop in
walk_page_range() happens to return a positive value, it leaks outside
walk_page_range().  So the user visible effect is invalid/unexpected
return value (according to the reporter, mbind() causes it.)

This patch fixes it simply by reinitializing the return value after
checked.

Another exposed interface, walk_page_vma(), already returns 0 for such
cases so no problem.
