This commit message really needs work.

And I agree with the idea of cleaning up the return values.  I think it
could be improved by always returning 0 on some success and -ERR on some
error, and carry an additional return value is a parameter, indicating
if the last entry was found, which can be omitted (be NULL) by callers
who do not care.
