Nit: what does -ENOMEM actually mean here? Was there any allocation?
Maybe -ENXIO is better suited, as the one below. Also, is it useful to
print something like we do further down?

Same comment for rmi_verify_memory_tracking().

Nit: in v18, Gavin suggested returning -ENODEV here (the hunk he
proposed). I think it makes more sense and it matches the -ENODEV in
rmi_verify_memory_tracking().
