This is not a valid error code for returning to user-space, but this case should be impossible so I don't think it matters.
Agreed. Maybe it should also WARN_ON(1), as there getting here would indicate a bug in the kernel.
Yes, WARN_ON() or WARN_ON_ONCE() would make sense.
This is what I added now:
