LU-17000 lnet: remove redundant errno check in liblnetconfig.c
Variable root is assigned NULL at the beginning of
lustre_lnet_show_stats(). If l_ioctl() fails, its return value
stored in rc will take the True path in the following conditional.
This conditional currently contains a redundant check for errno,
despite the fact that rc would = -errno in this case. If errno had
changed between the l_ioctl() call and this subsequent read, errno
could be 0, which would, from the out: label, lead to a NULL
root being used as a parameter in cYAML_insert_sibling() and
dereferencing the NULL root pointer.
Replaced l_errno's use as a parameter in strerror with -rc, and
removed decleration and other references to l_errno.
