a 'Stable:' tag here.

This pattern most likely repeats in other Intel drivers >_<
BTW it's a bit weird that we return -ENOMEM here, although we have a
precise errno in case of error. Shouldn't we do `return vectors` here?
(but this is more of an improvement, not a fix, so out of this patch's
scope)
