> distinction has to be drawn per CLOSID. Instead it is drawn system wide.
> -ENOSPC is reported when the free list holds no RMID for the requested
> CLOSID, even when that CLOSID has RMIDs in limbo. -EBUSY is reported
> when the free list is empty and another CLOSID has an RMID in limbo,
> even when the requested CLOSID has none. Userspace is thus told to give
> up on a shortage that may clear on its own, and to retry one that cannot
> clear until it removes a group itself.
>
> Architectures where the RMID is independent of the CLOSID always match
> the first entry on the free list, so neither case arises there and only
> MPAM systems are affected.

> Draw the distinction from the number of RMIDs the requested CLOSID has

> count otherwise. Drop the separate test for an empty free list, which
