This could use a goto to have a single path that ends the bio and
return NULL instead of duplicating the logic.
Sure, ok.
I was also considering adding a helper for these cases, similar to
bio_io_error(), which accepts a bio and an int errorno or blk_status_t
type, like:
void bio_end_error(struct bio* bio, int errno)
{
bio->bi_status = errno_to_blk_status(errno);
bio_endio(bio);
}
I didn't bother though. Sometimes we already have the blk_status_t
value, which made this a half-useful API.
