The error variable breaks build on CentOS 6.7, due to collision with
global error symbol:
CC util/evlist.o
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
In file included from util/evlist.c:28:
tools/include/linux/err.h: In function ‘ERR_PTR’:
tools/include/linux/err.h:34: error: declaration of ‘error’ shadows a global declaration
util/util.h:135: error: shadowed declaration is here
Using 'error_' name instead to fix it.

[ Use 'error_' instead of 'err' to, visually, not diverge too much from include/linux/err.h ]

Adding part of the kernel's <linux/err.h> interface:
inline void * __must_check ERR_PTR(long error);
inline long __must_check PTR_ERR(__force const void *ptr);
inline bool __must_check IS_ERR(__force const void *ptr);
It will be used to propagate error through pointers in following
patches.
