[PATCH v1] fs: Fix error checking for d_hash_and_lookup()

From: Wang Ming
Date: Thu Jul 13 2023 - 08:06:21 EST


The d_hash_and_lookup() function returns error pointers or NULL.
Most incorrect error checks were fixed, but the one in int path_pts()
was forgotten.

Fixes: eedf265aa003 ("devpts: Make each mount of devpts an independent filesystem.")
