The generic usage works, but is not very descriptive what really
happened. Would be good to print a message as soon as an error is
detectd. See below:

In this case the old code makes more sense followed by the message that
create and restore cannot be used at the same time.

Applies to both modes, eg. "not enoug devices specified for -m option".

Error message here if usage_error is set.

Could be merged with the multi_devices check above, accepts only one
without -m option.
