FYI, the thinking here was:
* I could not find an existing error code that seemed to have a similar meaning,
which we could reuse.
* At the same time, the meaning of this error code is so special that the approach
of adding it to kernel-private codes in include/linux/errno.h also seemed wrong.
* The number 532 is just one higher than the highest code in include/linux/errno.h
Suggestions welcome :)
