static inline int __must_check PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(__force const void *ptr)
{
	if (IS_ERR(ptr))
		return PTR_ERR(ptr);
	else
		return 0;
}

For below two cases, PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(new) will return zero:
a) f2fs_lookup found existed dentry
b) f2fs_lookup didn't find existed dentry (-ENOENT case)

So in below commit, I passed -ENOENT to tracepoint for case b), so we can
distinguish result of f2fs_lookup in tracepoint, actually, -ENOENT is expected
value when we create a new file/directory.

Commit 84597b1f9b05 ("f2fs: fix wrong value of tracepoint parameter")
