Please don't. Overriding error values tends to result in complaints by
static analyzers, and we don't want to have to deal with those.

This is simply wrong. The whole point of max_hw_heartbeat_ms is to
enable situations where the selected timeout is larger than the
timeout supported by the hardware. In that situation, the kernel
pings the hardware until the next ping from userspace is due.
