- It's better to show a warning message for the exceptional case that one of objectid (in most case, inode number) reaches its highest value. Show this message only once to avoid filling dmesg with it. - EOVERFLOW is more proper return value for this case. ENOSPC is for "No space left on device" case and objectid isn't related to any device.
