I think you mean that error() and raid5_align_endio are invoked and
the read request is sent to conf->retry_read_aligned_list, then the
raid5d will handle it.

I notice that the bit STRIPE_OP_COMPUTE_BLK is set if only s->uptodate
== disks - 1, however, suppose there is just a single read request, I
fail to find out why this condition is satisfied.
