Yeah, it's ugly.

No, it was a brain fart on my end.  I was thinking of these #defines, and managed
to forget that KVM always returns -KVM_Exxx.  /facepalm

  #define KVM_ENOSYS		1000
  #define KVM_EFAULT		EFAULT
  #define KVM_EINVAL		EINVAL
  #define KVM_E2BIG		E2BIG
  #define KVM_EPERM		EPERM
  #define KVM_EOPNOTSUPP		95
