[ Upstream commit ef05afa66c59c2031a3798916ef3ff3778232129 ]

There are code paths where EINVAL is returned directly without setting
errno. In that case, errno could be 0, which would mask the
failure. For example, if a careless programmer set log_level to 10000
out of laziness, they would have to spend a long time trying to figure
out why.
