watch_queue: fix IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE alloc error paths
The watch_queue_set_size() allocation error paths return the ret value
set via the prior pipe_resize_ring() call, which will always be zero.

As a result, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE callers such as "keyctl watch"
fail to detect kernel wqueue->notes allocation failures and proceed to
KEYCTL_WATCH_KEY, with any notifications subsequently lost.

Fixes: c73be61ced ("pipe: Add general notification queue support")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
