This patch series fixes the(currently incomplete) write error handling
in pblk by:
* queuing and re-submitting failed writes in the write buffer
* evacuating valid data data in lines with write failures, so the
chunk(s) with write failures can be reset to a known state by the fw
Lines with failures in smeta are put back on the free list.
Failed chunks will be reset on the next use.
If a write failes in emeta, the lba list is cached so the line can be
garbage collected without scanning the out-of-band area.
Changes in V2:
- Added the recov_writes counter increase to the new path
- Moved lba list emeta reading during gc to a separate function
- Allocating the saved lba list with pblk_malloc instead of kmalloc
- Fixed formatting issues
- Removed dead code
