I came up with this ontop:

That cleans it up even more, looks nice. I'd go just a touch further,
and also (unless there is some odd reason?) stay with -EAGAIN rather
than -EBUSY, because otherwise both the function's comment header, and
the caller, should change from -EBUSY to -EAGAIN just for consistency.

And also because the way it's used: the caller is literally "trying
again".

So on top of the ontop:
