This patchset aims to fix the AIL items retry problem that is on my plate for a while, and it's based on a discussion I had with Dave off-list. This basically consists of: 1- a mechanism to properly report failures during writeback back to the items attached to the failed buffer 2- Use this mechanism to detect such failures and properly re-submit the items failed previously It is worth to mention that this same problem is also possible in dquot code, but the fix is almost identical to the inodes. I am not submitting a fix for dquot yet to avoid the need to create VX for both patches, once we agree with the solution, I'll submit a fix to dquot.
