[PATCH v3 vfs 1/2] open: Fix return type of several functions from long to int

[Yuichiro Tsuji]

Fix the return type of several functions from long to int to match its actu
al behavior. These functions only return int values. This change improves
type consistency across the filesystem code and aligns the function signatu
re with its existing implementation and usage.
