With gcc 4.1.2:

    drivers/mmc/core/block.c: In function ‘mmc_blk_issue_drv_op’:
    drivers/mmc/core/block.c:1178: warning: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized in 
this function

Indeed, if mq_rq->ioc_count is zero, an uninitialized value will be
stored in mq_rq->drv_op_result and passed to blk_end_request_all().

Can mq_rq->ioc_count be zero?
  - mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd() sets ioc_count to 1, so this is safe,
  - mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd() obtains ioc_count from user space in
    response to the MMC_IOC_MULTI_CMD ioctl, and does allow zero.

Preinitialize ret to -EINVAL to fix this for current and future callers.

I assume -EINVAL is the error we want to return here if ioc_count is
zero.
Or should it return success (zero), like mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd() used
to do?
