I'm still confused here, sorry. From previous discussions I recall that
this indicates "no crypto device" (please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Before this patch, we had:
- guest issues PQAP/AQIC -> drop to userspace

With a correct implementation, we get:
- guest issues PQAP/AQIC -> callback does what needs to be done

With an incorrect implementation (no callback), we get:
- guest issues PQAP/AQIC -> guest gets response code 0x01

Why not drop to userspace in that case?
