Subject: perf target: str_error_r() always returns the buffer it receives
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ce92834407a465c25c0be1a4a0339c625e44c4db;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

perf target: str_error_r() always returns the buffer it receives

So no need for checking if it uses the strerror_r() GNU variant error
reporting mechanism, i.e. if it returns a pointer to a immutable string
internal to glibc.
