When a command is return with DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED we should
be looking at the REQ_FAILFAST_TRANSPORT flag and do not retry
the command if set.
Otherwise multipath will be requeuing a command on the failed
path and not fail it over to one of the working paths.

We don't fast fail for that error code to avoid churn for transient transport problems. The FC and iscsi drivers block the rport/session, return that code and then it's up the fast_io_fail/replacement timeout.

_But_ if prevents that command to be failed over to another path, so essentially we're blocking execution until fast_io_fail tmo.

For no good reason as we have other paths available.

Cheers,

Hannes
