> Function create_ipsec_esp_flow returns a negative number in case of any failure
> and we are passing this to strerror to display the error message.
> But strerror()'s argument cannot be negative.
> In case of failure, displaying exact error message to console is handled in
> create_ipsec_esp_flow function.So it is not required to print the error message
> again using strerror.
> This patch will remove the unnecessary calling of strerror function to fix the
> negative argument passing to strerror issue.
> 
> Coverity issue: 357691
> Fixes: 6738c0a95695 ("examples/ipsec-secgw: support flow director")
