Unfortunately I have no clue and have not yet seen this abbreviation in
any documentation...

I'll remap them a step down, so the function returns 0 on success and 1
on "need to wait for cbc complete". That way we don't have an undefined
hole in the return set as well.

With the above remap I can rename ret here to need_cbc and the code will
be understandable.

Thanks for the feedback!
