Considering that we use EINVAL for almost everything (well beyond
parameter checking I'm afraid), I don't think using this value for
something intended to yield a specific user mode error message is
really a good choice. Looking at the two respective hypervisor side
changes - how about e.g. using EDOM, EBADF, or ENXIO instead?
