We use -ENODEV if feature when the device rejects the features we
tried to negotiate (see virtio_finalize_features()) and -EINVAL when
the F_VERSION_1 and the virtio-ccw revision ain't coherent (in
virtio_ccw_finalize_features()). Any of those seems more fitting
that EIO to me. BTW does the error code itself matter in any way,
or is it just OK vs some error?
