With the error configuration handle for async metadata write errors
in place, we can now add initial support to the IO error processing
in xfs_buf_iodone_error().
Add an infrastructure function to look up the configuration handle,
and rearrange the error handling to prepare the way for different
error handling conigurations to be used.
Changelog:
V3:
- in xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks, use cfg->max_retries to
determine if the filesystem should fail or not, a zero value
means it should never retry.
