  Is that really better than suggesting the operation is not supported ?

  Seems to me that goto should be suppressed, it just generate a leak of path
On the other hand fd is leaked for sure ... This really need some
double-checking ;-)

  Otherwise, sounds fine, as long as this doesn't generate a bus reset.
