If you set UNKNOWN to -ENOSYS, SUPPORTED to 1 and NOT_SUPPORTED to 0,
you could just do if (boardstate >= 0) return boardstate; here
(Even if you want to keep it verbose, I like the enum constants having
expectable values)

If you associate a dev with the np on deep probe, can't you just
return it deep_probe_is_supported() ?
