This could be a potential source of data corruption.

There is no guarantee that a subsequent I/O will fail just because
the reset failed.  Reading / writing the wrong partition would be
disastrous, so we should always try to get back to the correct
partition.

I haven't looked at the possibility of just flagging the partition
as invalid - need to be sure any subsequent I/O attempts still go
through a path that switches the partition.
