[PATCH] fgraph: Format error pointers as signed errno values

[Donglin Peng]

From: pengdonglin <pengdonglin@xxxxxxxxxx>

The BTF-aware funcgraph-retval formatter currently treats all pointer
returns as hexadecimal values. Error pointers returned with ERR_PTR()
therefore appear as high unsigned addresses in smart mode, obscuring the
underlying errno.

Recognize error-pointer values for pointer return types in
btf_trim_retval() and select signed decimal formatting.

Before:
  trim_retval_ptr_error(); /* ret=0xffffffffffffffea */

After:
  trim_retval_ptr_error(); /* ret=-22 */

Users who need to inspect the raw encoded value can enable
funcgraph-retval-hex, which produces:

  trim_retval_ptr_error(); /* ret=0xffffffffffffffea */
