What are you expecting to happen with -EAGAIN? This one was a bit of an
oddball.

This condition would only change if you had an overlay. That's a use
case that needs to be handled in a common way ('cause I don't want to
clean-up every driver doing overlays in their own way latter). Just
having "status" changing at runtime would have all sorts of implications
in the kernel.

Yes, you are right.
