When I was young I usually get confused with this error message.

BTW would you like to make other patches regarding the error generated
when kernel module not loaded? For example, when usbip-host is not
loaded, the error message of usbip bind does not give much help.

$ usbip bind -b 1-6
usbip: error: unable to bind device on 1-6

Another example is that when there is no gadget attached to
the usbip-vudc, the following error messages are not helpful

$ usbipd -e -D
libusbip: error: Cannot read vudc device descr file: No such device

$ usbip list -d
usbip: error: problem getting device attributes: No such device
