While writing the man page paragraph, I discovered that if the rings are
disabled I returned ENXIO error in io_uring_enter(), coming from the previous
check.

I'm not sure it is the best one, maybe I can return EBADFD or another
error.

What do you suggest?

I'll add a test for this case.

Thanks,
Stefano
