Fix an fd leak and a return of -1 instead of -errno in the error path - this
showed up in intensive testing of HPPFS, the os_connect_socket user.

The poster child for this patch is the third tuntap_user hunk. When an ioctl
fails, it properly closes the opened file descriptor and returns. However,
the close resets errno to 0, and the 'return errno' that follows returns 0
rather than the value that ioctl set. This caused the caller to believe that
the device open succeeded and had opened file descriptor 0, which caused no
end of interesting behavior.
The rest of this patch is a pass through the UML sources looking for places
where errno could be reset before being passed back out. A common culprit is
printk, which could call write, being called before errno is returned.
In some cases, where the code ends up being much smaller, I just deleted the
printk.
There was another case where a caller of run_helper looked at errno after a
failure, rather than the return value of run_helper, which was the errno value
that it wanted.

This is a bunch of compile fixes provoked by building UML with gcc 4. There
are a bunch of signedness mismatches, a couple of uninitialized references,
and a botched C99 structure initialization which had somehow gone unnoticed.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
