Hi Rafael,

I picked -ENODEV because the _SUN and _STA show functions use -ENODEV
for a return value when the acpi_evaluate_integer() fails.

I checked in the sysfs code what the return value is used for and any
negative value is treated the same, that is, the sysfs code is not
looking specifically for -EIO.

Do you still want me to change it to -EIO?

-Betty
