This is consistent with other functions, but it's probably not the 
correct errno code. It means that a device is not available for opening.

But the situation here is rather as with close() on a 
disconnected-network file. The call to close() returns EIO in this case. 
Maybe we should consider changing this in a separate patch.

Best regards
