Ah, right. I see what you mean. It should probably return a -EAGAIN
instead of 0 and then the if (rc) check should be modified to specifically
look for -EAGAIN and goto out after setting rc to 0.

But that does leave the MSR protocol open to the problem that you mention,
so, yes, retry logic in snp_handle_page_state_change() for a -EAGAIN seems
reasonable.

Thanks,
Tom
