Is there a reason we shouldn't be setting the error in all cases?  I
certainly can't think of one, in which case just set it globally.
There's also a return BLKPREP_DEFER on line 1191:

	if(unlikely(specials_only) && !(req->flags & REQ_SPECIAL)) {
		if(specials_only == SDEV_QUIESCE ||
				specials_only == SDEV_BLOCK)
			return BLKPREP_DEFER;

That needs to become a goto defer; for the same reasons as outlined
above.
