Commit d424db2354 removed an instance of strerrorname_np() because it
was breaking building with musl libc. A recent RISC-V patch ended up
re-introducing it again by accident.
Put this function in the baddies list in checkpatch.pl to avoid this
situation again. This is what it will look like next time:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-temp-test.patch
ERROR: use strerror() instead of strerrorname_np()
#22: FILE: target/riscv/kvm/kvm-cpu.c:1058:
+ strerrorname_np(errno));
total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 10 lines checked
