You didn't pay much attention to where I put my comment. You have few
branches depending on return value
1) negative, apparently an error code, should be propagated if nothing
specific to framework;
2) zero, what does it means?
3) one, seems the expected result when success, so, error code should be 0;
4) two, three, … non-negative numbers,see 2).
For my understanding 2) and 4) have to return what you initially had -EIO.

Yes, in *this* branch.
