From: Pavel Shilovsky <pshilovsky@xxxxxxxxx>
If we got a reconnect error from async readv we re-add pages back
to page_list and continue loop. That is wrong because these pages
have been already added to the pagecache but page_list has pages that
have not been added to the pagecache yet. This ends up with a general
protection fault in put_pages after readpages. Fix it by not retrying
the read of these pages and falling back to readpage instead.
