I think that there is a real different between eth_err function to fs_is_error:
ethdev uses eth_err function to adjust removal return value to be -EIO.
fail-safe uses fs_is_error function to check if an error should be reported to the user to save the fail-safe principle that the app should not be aware of device removal - this is the main idea that also causes me to change the name from fs_is_removed to fs_is_error.
