Subject: libbpf: Prevent overriding errno when logging errors
X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=23ab656be263813acc3c20623757d3cd1496d9e1;p=linux.git

libbpf: Prevent overriding errno when logging errors

Turns out there were a few more instances where libbpf didn't save the
errno before writing an error message, causing errno to be overridden by
the printf() return and the error disappearing if logging is enabled.
