Previously, using "%m" in a ksft_* format string can result in strange
output because the errno value wasn't saved before calling other libc
functions. The solution is to simply save and restore the errno before
we format the user-supplied format string.

Hi Aleksa,

Can you send this patch separate from the patch series. I will apply
this as bug fix to 5.3-rc2 or rc3.

This isn't part of this series anyway and I would like to get this in
right away.

Done, and I'll drop it in v11 after the rest gets reviewed.
