We have a problem with recovered error handling in that any command
which goes down as BLOCK_PC but which returns a sense code of RECOVERED
ERROR gets completed with -EIO. For actual SG_IO commands, this doesn't
matter at all, since the error return code gets dropped in favour of
req->errors which contain the SCSI completion code.
However, if this command is part of the block system, then it will pay
attention to the returned error code. In particularly if a SYNCHRONIZE
CACHE from a barrier command completes with RECOVERED ERROR, the
resulting -EIO on the barrier causes block to error the request and
return it to the filesystem. Fix this by converting the -EIO for
recovered error to zero, plus remove the printing of this from sd and sr
so the message isn't double printed.
