Subject: tools/depmod: don't use %m on mkdir_p() failure
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5c226b6fa0da0284d675bd1ae96b12c0b88e2eae;p=thirdparty%2Fkmod.git

tools/depmod: don't use %m on mkdir_p() failure

The function returns the error code itself, so we should be using
strerror(-err) instead.
