    argo: warn sendv() caller when ring is full
    
    In its current state, if the destination ring is full, sendv()
    will requeue the message and return the rc of pending_requeue(),
    which will return 0 on success. This prevents the caller from
    distinguishing the difference between a successful write and a
    message that needs to be resent at a later time.
    
    Instead, capture the -EAGAIN value returned from ringbuf_insert()
    and *only* overwrite it if the rc of pending_requeue() is non-zero.
    This allows the caller to make intelligent decisions on -EAGAIN and
    still be alerted if the pending message fails to requeue.
