[PATCH 03/17] perf target: str_error_r() always returns the buffer it receives

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

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.
