That's the first time I've seen anyone use EREMOTEIO ;) Any idea what it
was added to Unix for?

hm, DVB seems to like it.

DVB's usage of EREMOTEIO actually comes from drivers/i2c/.
I suppose it means that the error didn't happen at the
bus driver but was caused the device behind the bus,
although I'm not sure if one can really tell those cases
from one another.
