Thanks for the review.  I am going to split the patch into 2 smaller pieces.

For those related to preamble bytes, at the first glance, they could use
-EPROTO.  But, no, they are irrelevant to the protocol.  I would drop them.
See [1].

For those `din` isn't large enough, I would keep using -EINVAL as they look
more like the `ec_dev` didn't configure correctly.  See [2].
