[Virtio-fs] [PATCH v2 1/2] virtiofsd: Save error code early at the failure callsite

[Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com>]

Change error code handling slightly in lo_setattr(). Right now we seem
to jump to out_err and assume that "errno" is valid and use that to
send reply.

But if caller has to do some other operations before jumping to out_err,
then it does the dance of first saving errno to saverr and the restore
errno before jumping to out_err. This makes it more confusing.

I am about to make more changes where caller will have to do some
work after error before jumping to out_err. I found it easier to
change the convention a bit. That is caller saves error in "saverr"
before jumping to out_err. And out_err uses "saverr" to send error
back and does not rely on "errno" having actual error.
