Regarding cost, the suggested way has even higher cost, the spin lock can’t be avoided unless you don’t access the lockres and an extra function call was also added.
Actually that function shouldn’t be invoked because it was already invoked once in this flow. I don’t think we should change return value of that function, EBUSY looks most reasonable return value for me.
