1. I see you keep in mind multiple access. Then you'd worry about race
conditions as well. In this case, I'd consider atomic access to
variable.
2. It seems you need is_init() helper too.

You can do not initialize 'err'.

As 'opts' is static, don't you need to take some measures to prevent
concurrent access. The simpler measure for me is to declare it on
stack.
