A quick comment... ENOTSUP is available in <errno.h> [0] if you want
to stay in the "not supported" path.
When searching for "Unknown error 524", I read another kernel module
switched to EOPNOTSUPP [1] According to [2], EOPNOTSUPP is not as bad
because there is a userland message.
Personally, I am mostly indifferent.
