After commit 236c32eb1096 ("mm: migrate: clean up migrate_prep{_local}")',
do_migrate_pages can return uninitialized variable 'err' (which is
propagated to user-space as error) when 'from' and 'to' nodesets
are identical. This can be reproduced with LTP migrate_pages01,
which calls migrate_pages() with same set for both old/new_nodes.

Add 'err' initialization back.
