Why not return 'ret' here, instead of -EBUSY?

So generally we don't put functions with side effects into WARN_ON()s. Just like 
BUG_ON(), in the future it might be disabled on certain Kconfigs, etc. - and it's 
also bad for readability.

Also, please use WARN_ON_ONCE().

Looks good to me otherwise.
