fs: hugetlb: simplify remove_inode_hugepages() return type

Browse source

When remove_inode_hugepages() was introduced in commit c86272287b
("hugetlb: create remove_inode_single_folio to remove single file folio")
it used to return a boolean to indicate if it bailed out due to race with
page faults.  However, since the race is already solved by [1],
remove_inode_hugepages() doesn't have any path to return false anymore.

Simplify remove_inode_hugepages() return type to void, remove the
unnecessary ret variable, and adjust the call site in
remove_inode_hugepages().  No functional change in this commit.
