Subject: [PATCH 5.19 044/155] cachefiles: fix error return code in cachefiles_ondemand_copen()

From: Sun Ke <sunke32@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit c93ccd63b18c8d108c57b2bb0e5f3b058b9d2029 ]

The cache_size field of copen is specified by the user daemon.
If cache_size < 0, then the OPEN request is expected to fail,
while copen itself shall succeed. However, returning 0 is indeed
unexpected when cache_size is an invalid error code.

Fix this by returning error when cache_size is an invalid error code.

Changes
=======
v4: update the code suggested by Dan
v3: update the commit log suggested by Jingbo.

Fixes: c8383054506c ("cachefiles: notify the user daemon when looking up cookie")
