Subject: [PATCH 1/2] error-injection: Remove EI_ETYPE_NONE

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@...nel.org>

Since the EI_ETYPE_NONE is confusing type, replace it with appropriate
errno. The EI_ETYPE_NONE has been introduced for a dummy (error) value,
but it can mislead people that they can use ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION(func,
NONE). So remove it from the EI_ETYPE and use appropriate errno instead.

Fixes: 663faf9f7bee ("error-injection: Add injectable error types")
