In general, I'm a bit worried about these changes, for two overall reasons:
1) I didn't see any analysis of the ultimate end users of block layer
error values: the filesystems.
2) This begins to converge with the SCSI layer's error/retry/etc. error
values. Since I would eventually like to see SCSI's non-SCSI-related
infrastructure "moved up", a bit -more- alignment with SCSI at this
stage might be nice.
