It seems BPF subsys returns ENOTSUPP in multiple places. This fixes one
paticular case and is user facing. Not sure we want to one-off fix them
here creating user facing changes over multiple kernel versions. On the
fence with this one curious to see what others think. Haven't apps
already adapted to the current convention or they don't care?
