When SCSI blk-mq is enabled, there is a bug in handling errors in scsi_queue_rq. Specifically, the bug is not setting result field of scsi_request correctly when the dispatch of the command has been failed. Since the upper layer code including the sg_io ioctl expects to receive any error status from result field of scsi_request, the error is silently ignored and this could cause data corruptions for some applications.
