[ Upstream commit af0670b0bf1b116fd729b1b1011cf814bc34e12e ]
When the ioctl() mechanism was introduced in IIO core to centralize the
registration of all ioctls in one place via commit 8dedcc3eee3ac ("iio:
core: centralize ioctl() calls to the main chardev"), the return code was
changed from ENODEV to EINVAL, when the ioctl code isn't known.
This was done by accident.
This change reverts back to the old behavior, where if the ioctl() code
isn't known, ENODEV is returned (vs EINVAL).
This was brought into perspective by this patch:
