Indeed. But this opens up another question:

By the time blk_execute_rq() returns, the request is already
put back onto the queue.
That means that I shouldn't access rq->errors any more, as
the request might have been reused already.
But blk_execute_rq() returns -EIO for any error, making it
impossible to signal a proper error here.
So how do I get the contents of rq->errors safely?

Cheers,

Hannes
