What errno.h file is that?
I have:
./include/asm-generic/errno-base.h:#define      ENXIO            6      /* No such device or address */
./include/asm-generic/errno-base.h:#define      ENODEV          19      /* No such device */

AFAIK ENXIO is used when actual I/O has been attempted. But in this
case the driver is still being configured and did not do any I/O yet.
