For the N'th time, NO.  IS_ERR is correct here.

Look, it's the ABI.  Not only that but it's also TOTALLY AND UTTERLY WRONG
to use IS_ERR_OR_NULL(foo) and then follow it with return PTR_ERR(foo).
You end up returning ZERO.

Stop telling people to use IS_ERR_OR_NULL without properly thinking about
it first.  Virtually every single one of these done this way is a BUG.

Are we clear on this?
