> Fix fallout from commit c181840c93d3 ("Consolidate non cancellable close
> call") that caused '__close_nocancel_nostatus' to clobber 'errno' on a
> close(2) failure, a 2.27 regression.
>
> The problem came from a rewrite from 'close_not_cancel_no_status' to
> '__close_nocancel_nostatus' switching from an inline implementation that
> used INTERNAL_SYSCALL macro (which stays away from 'errno') to a call to
> '__close_nocancel' function that uses INLINE_SYSCALL_CALL macro (which
> does poke at 'errno').
>
> Implement '__close_nocancel_nostatus' in terms of INTERNAL_SYSCALL_CALL
> then, which leaves 'errno' intact.

> Changes from v1:

> - Switch to an inline implementation.
