Having a default for a volatile register isn't really a sensible
configuration since the whole point with volatile registers is
that they change underneath us, I'd not be surprised if we had
some error checking code in there that was trying to tell you
there was a problem though it does seem like it should at least
be more verbose about it since returning -EBUSY isn't exactly
helpful by itself.
