EACCES cannot be distinguished against an incorrect DOMCTL_INTERFACE_VERSION, and will cause an incorrect "need to rebuild the user-space tool set?" message from libxc. EINVAL is a perfectly reasonable alternative.
On the libxc side, put the useful piece of information in the error message, rathe than the -1 from do_domctl().
