lib/test_lockup.c: fix return value of test_lockup_init()
Since filp_open() returns an error pointer, we should use IS_ERR() to
check the return value and then return PTR_ERR() if failed to get the
actual return value instead of always -EINVAL.
E.g. without this patch:
[root@localhost loongson]# ls no_such_file
ls: cannot access no_such_file: No such file or directory
[root@localhost loongson]# modprobe test_lockup file_path=no_such_file lock_sb_umount time_secs=60 state=S
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'test_lockup': Invalid argument
[root@localhost loongson]# dmesg | tail -1
[ 126.100596] test_lockup: cannot find file_path
With this patch:
[root@localhost loongson]# ls no_such_file
ls: cannot access no_such_file: No such file or directory
[root@localhost loongson]# modprobe test_lockup file_path=no_such_file lock_sb_umount time_secs=60 state=S
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'test_lockup': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
[root@localhost loongson]# dmesg | tail -1
[ 95.134362] test_lockup: failed to open no_such_file: -2
