Can you document this unique error code gracefully so that authors of
such callers get clued in easily?

Doing so will probably require choosing a reasonable, existing errno and
documenting its return in the DIAGNOSTICS section of fsck_ffs(8).

That's the first place I'd look for something like this if I were the
author of a caller that cares.
