With our XDP-hints kfunc approach, where individual drivers overload the default implementation, it can be hard for API users to determine whether or not the current device driver have this kfunc available. Change the default implementations to use an errno (ENODEV), that drivers shouldn't return, to make it possible for BPF runtime to determine if bpf kfunc for xdp metadata isn't implemented by driver. This is intended to ease supporting and troubleshooting setups. E.g. when users on mailing list report -19 (ENODEV) as an error, then we can immediately tell them their kernel is too old.
