libbpf: Use proper errno value in linker
[ Upstream commit 358b1c0f56ebb6996fcec7dcdcf6bae5dcbc8b6c ]
Return values of the linker_append_sec_data() and the
linker_append_elf_relos() functions are propagated all the
way up to users of libbpf API. In some error cases these
functions return -1 which will be seen as -EPERM from user's
point of view. Instead, return a more reasonable -EINVAL.
Fixes: faf6ed321cf6 ("libbpf: Add BPF static linker APIs")
