Erm, no, -EBUSY please.

EADDRNOTAVAIL is the canonical error for devm_request_and_ioremap()
failure. The kerneldoc comment in lib/devres.c even gives a short
example that uses this error code.

I am sorry, but I do not consider a function that was added a little
over a year ago as a canon. If you look at the uses of EADDRNOTAVAIL it
is used predominantly in networking code to indicate that attempted
_network_ address is not available.

Thanks.
