So why > does this patch change the meaning of BLK_STS_RESOURCE? What I meant by a "non-path error" is that those types of errors for nvme go through the "normal" requeuing that checks CRD. The failover requeuing does not check CRD. But thinking again, I don't see why the failover side can't also be CRD aware.
