grab_requested_mnt_ns was changed to return error codes on failure, but
its callers were not updated to check for error pointers, still checking
only for a NULL return value.
This commit updates the callers to use IS_ERR() or IS_ERR_OR_NULL() and
PTR_ERR() to correctly check for and propagate errors.
This also makes sure that the logic actually works and mount namespace
file descriptors can be used to refere to mounts.

Rework the patch to be more ergonomic and in line with our overall error
handling patterns.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
