It looks like no.

If the FSM trapped in a bad state here, such as
VFIO_CCW_STATE_NOT_OPER, then it means it should have already unpinned
the pages and this is considered a success for this purpose

The return code here exists only to return to userspace so it can
detect during a VFIO_DEVICE_RESET that the device has crashed
irrecoverably.

Thus just continuing to silently ignore it seems like the best thing.
