I'm not sure what was meant by user space API. However, hypervisor API 
doesn't provision a return value. r0 is usually the return value for 
most other Gunyah hypercalls except for this one -- instead, it's the 
api_info field.

The other kind of error we could get is at hypercall "transport" layer, 
but the hvc instruction doesn't fail and if we ever change the hypercall 
transport, I'm sure there will be a lot of other changes to consider as 
well.

Thanks,
Elliot
