[PATCH 03/14] perf config: Do not consider an error not to have any perfconfig file

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Feb 01 2017 - 07:25:24 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

While propagating the errors from perf_config(), which were being
completely ignored, everything stopped working for people without a
~/.perfconfig file, because the perf_config_set__init() was considering
an error not to have a .perfconfig file, duh, fix it by checking the
errno after the failed stat() call.

It should also not return an error when it says it is ignoring the file,
and also a empty file should not return an error either.
