Note that I'm not sure this answers the issue I was raising - the issue
isn't that the caller doesn't know what the error code means, the issue
is that in some cases the driver needs to take a decision about what
failure to get a resource means. Does it mean that the driver can work
fine and be slightly less featureful or should it cause a deferral?
