Recently we moved to returning errp. Why to keep int return value?
Generally it doesn't help: you can't use in a logic of handling
an error, as you are never sure, that in future the logic in
the stack will not change: it may start to return another error
code in the same case, or return same error code in another case.

Actually, we can only rely on concrete errno code when get it
_directly_ from documented library function or syscall. This way we
handle for example EINTR. But later in a stack, we can only add
this errno to the textual error by strerror().

Let this new, recently added API be simpler and clearer, let it
return simple boolean value, so we shouldn't think:

  - should we handle different error codes differently
    (if yes - how exactly, if no - why do we need this information?)

  - should we add it to errp, or it was already added earlier in
    the stack
