I'd argue it's worse to change an established define, and I don't see anything
wrong with the FEATURE ordering aligning with the encoded value. Not your fault
you don't have any documentation, if you had, I'm sure you could have come up
with something better than "FEATURE" :-) That said, it's your code, so if you
feel strongly about it, there isn't much harm in changing it. Your call.

Tough call since we aren't distinguishing between "not supported" (-EIO) and
"operation failed" (-ENXIO). In this case, ret!=0 indicates "not supported" I
believe, and -EIO would be the most appropriate for that semantic.
That said, we ignore the return code anyway .... so perhaps leave this for a
separate cleanup :-)

Great, I'll look for one more version from you. Thanks for sticking with it.
