[LTP] [PATCH v15 1/3] lib/tst_uid: Remove spurious TERRNO from tst_get_free_gid success path

Hi all,

> tst_get_free_gid_() prints the found GID when it succeeds, but it
> incorrectly includes TERRNO in tst_res_(). This prints whatever value
> happens to be in errno (often 0 or a stale value) which is confusing in
> a success path.

> Remove the spurious TERRNO flag from the tst_res_() success message.

Martin might done it intentionally (had a reason for printing it).
If not, I'd merge this simple improvement before the release.

Fixes: 68f0a7fedf ("Add verbose setup to creat08, creat09 and open10")

Kind regards,
Petr
