I like it, thanks for the suggestion!

Right. If I understand correctly, requesting the region should always be
done anyway, so this should be a welcome change.

What Andrew suggests also changes the return value: -ENOMEM instead of
-EIO, though it should be more standard. This could have side effects too!

I'll post a V2 right away.

Thanks again!
