strerror_r(), used from libbpf-specific libbpf_strerror_r() wrapper is documented to return error in two different ways, depending on glibc version. Take that into account when handling strerror_r()'s own errors, which happens when we pass some non-standard (internal) kernel error to it. Before this patch we'd have "ERROR: strerror_r(524)=22", which is quite confusing. Now for the same situation we'll see a bit less visually scary "unknown error (-524)". At least we won't confuse user with irrelevant EINVAL (22).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
