Noah, want to give it a try? I've just sent a prep patch, with it you
can implement it cleaner with one continue.

Perfect. Even better if you add a liburing test

Do you think the return value should not include files skipped?

i.e register fds[1, 2, 3, -1] with no errors returns 4. should fds[1,
2, -2, -1] return 3 or 4 do you think?

Personally think the latter makes more sense. Thoughts?

Let's just return @done, 4 in your case. Because otherwise locating which
index has failed would be hell. And it's consistent with delete (i.e. -1).
