I'm not following why propagating errors is related to the
if (val != MSMON___L_NRDY)
as nothing in this patch is changing val.

with ACQUIRE() you can just do
		if (val == MS_MON__L_NRDY)
			return;

and leave the rest where it was.
However I don't actually see what this has to do wiht the main purpose of the
patch to propagate errors. Perhaps a bit more detail in the commit message.
