Fix an issue detected by the Smatch tool:\

drivers/gpio/gpiolib-swnode.c:78 swnode_find_gpio() error:
uninitialized symbol 'ret'.

The issue occurs because the 'ret' variable may be used without
initialization if the for_each_gpio_property_name loop does not run.
This could lead to returning an undefined value, causing unpredictable
behavior.

Initialize 'ret' to -EINVAL before the loop to ensure the function
returns an error code if no properties are parsed, maintaining proper
error handling.
