Change the 'ret' variable in __bch2_dev_attach_bdev() from unsigned to
int, as it needs to store either negative error codes or zero.

Storing the negative error codes in unsigned type, doesn't cause an issue
at runtime but can be confusing. Additionally, assigning negative error
codes to unsigned type may trigger a GCC warning when the -Wsign-conversion
flag is enabled.

No effect on runtime.
