Emil, ENODEV would mean the driver does not support ioctl() itself. But in our case ioctl() is supported.

Since we extract the query type from arg passed to ioctl(), and it is this query AMDGPU_INFO_NUM_HANDLES which is not supported by driver (for > Polaris), doesn’t returning EINVAL make more sense here?
