[PATCH RESEND kvmtool 1/4] util: Make pr_err() return void

[Alexandru Elisei <alexandru.elisei@xxxxxxx>]

Of all the pr_* functions, pr_err() is the only function that returns a
value, which is -1. The code in parse_options is the only code that relies
on pr_err() returning a value, and that value must be exactly -1, because
it is being treated differently than the other return values.

This makes the code opaque, because it's not immediately obvious where that
value comes from, and fragile, as a change in the return value of pr_err
would break it.

Make pr_err() more like the other functions and don't return a value.
