Yup. My takeaway is that the uAPI debugability is something that has
never been taken seriously (-EINVAL!). And that if we are going to design
an asynchronous interface with variable command packets, then we need a
better means for userspace to see which command went wrong and why. For
that, I think attaching a tracek ringbuf to the interface would be ideal.

Unless I can sell you on a validation layer in userspace :)

Optimistically, soon.
