Andrei Vagin 78f0e33cd6 fs/namespace: correctly handle errors returned by grab_requested_mnt_ns
grab_requested_mnt_ns was changed to return error codes on failure, but
its callers were not updated to check for error pointers, still checking
only for a NULL return value.

This commit updates the callers to use IS_ERR() or IS_ERR_OR_NULL() and
PTR_ERR() to correctly check for and propagate errors.

This also makes sure that the logic actually works and mount namespace
file descriptors can be used to refere to mounts.

Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> says:

Rework the patch to be more ergonomic and in line with our overall error
handling patterns.
