Code Review
This pull request adds comments to src/libcrun/linux.c and src/libcrun/net_device.c to explain why an error object from a vfork() child process can be reused in the parent. This is a useful clarification. The changes are correct. I've provided minor stylistic suggestions to format the new comments as multi-line blocks for better readability, in line with common C coding practices.

This comment is helpful for clarification. To improve readability and align with common C coding styles (like the Linux kernel style guide) for explanatory comments, consider formatting this as a multi-line block. This avoids a long single line of text.
/*
* The vfork() child shares the parent's memory space, so the error
* object populated by the child is available to the parent.

There are examples in the source code where the vfork parent process reuses an error created by the vfork child process. Document that there is no need to create an error in the parent process in such cases.

I've already twice made the mistake to suggest that the missing error is a bug:
