Adding part of the kernel's <linux/err.h> interface:

  inline void * __must_check ERR_PTR(long error);
  inline long   __must_check PTR_ERR(__force const void *ptr);
  inline bool   __must_check IS_ERR(__force const void *ptr);

It will be used to propagate error through pointers in following
patches.
