Subject: selftests/mm: fix read_file() return value check
Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2026 09:35:55 +0800

read_file() returns 0 on open/read failures and never returns negative
values.  Existing < 0 error checks never trigger, so read failures are
silently ignored.  Check for zero return to detect read_file() failures.

Also fix misleading error message in get_finfo().  The error string
incorrectly references read_num when reading uevent files.
