The cache_size field of copen is specified by the user daemon. If cache_size < 0, then the OPEN request is expected to fail, while copen itself shall succeed. However, returning 0 is indeed unexpected when cache_size is an invalid error code. Fix this by returning error when cache_size is an invalid error code.
