coccinelle: avoid matching 'errno' as a file descriptor

The `coccinelle/take-fd.cocci` transformation file attempts to rewrite

r = fd;
fd = -1;

to

r = TAKE_FD(fd);

Unfortunately, using `identifier` or `idexpression` as a metavariable
type in this case wouldn't match more complex location descriptions,
like:

x->fd = fd
fd = -1;

Using 'expression' metavariable type generates false positives,
as you can't specify scope of such expression. The only real example
from the current codebase is the global 'errno' variable, which results
in following patch generated by `spatch`:

Let's explicitly state that the matched expression should not equal
'errno' to avoid this. It's not particularly nice, but it should be
enough, at least for now.
