I don't think so as the ret value will be changed from -EINVAL (as set
from the previous if block) to -EIO. I believe that the intent from the
aforementioned commit was to return an -EINVAL on this case.

My email client detected your email as an HTML one. Is that so? Just as
a heads up for others as the reply format might look a bit funky :/
