But we have to check for different error messages caused by different
errnos again, and xfs_io doesn't set non-zero return value on failure,
so there's no easy way to check if XFS_IOC_RESVSP ioctl is succeeded or
not. I think it would be easier to do it in feature.c and we can rely on
the return value of 'feature'.

Or can we assume 'xfs -c "resvsp 0 1"' prints nothing on success, then
we could check if it prints out some kind error messages?
