It seems like there are a lot of asm/errno.h files:

$ find . -name errno.h
./arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./arch/mips/include/asm/errno.h
./arch/mips/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./arch/alpha/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./arch/parisc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./arch/sparc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/mips/include/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/mips/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/alpha/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/parisc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/sparc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/include/nolibc/errno.h
./tools/include/uapi/asm/errno.h
./tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h
./include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h
./include/uapi/linux/errno.h
./include/linux/errno.h

How should I proceed with this? You mention EDEADLK - EHWPOISON, but its
not clear to me which asm/errno.h file I should base this on.
