Strictly speaking if the printf two line back would produce an error, then
errno would now contain the errno from the printf and not from the ioctl.
So errno should be assigned to a local variable right after the ioctl.

Note that this was already a bug in the original code.

Note also that I fail to see any difference in the old vs the new code.

Please keep this printf on one line. Yes, you get a checkpatch warning but
I'd rather have a slightly longer line than an ugly split line.
