That's the definition of EAGAIN :)

I thought EBUSY in the sense of "don't disturb" would be appropriate. This
value was also chosen because it is not likely to be returned by any
intermediate function calls. I've defined EBUSY along with the return value
of this function for clarity (see above). Any suggestion?
