3.19.8-ckt8 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit e9ae58aeee8842a50f7e199d602a5ccb2e41a95f upstream.
We should ensure that we always set the pgio_header's error field
if a READ or WRITE RPC call returns an error. The current code depends
on 'hdr->good_bytes' always being initialised to a large value, which
is not always done correctly by callers.
When this happens, applications may end up missing important errors.
