The block layer code will split a large zeroout request into multiple bios
and if WRITE SAME is disabled because the storage device reports that it
does not support it (or support the length used), we can get an error message
from the block layer despite the setting of RQF_QUIET on the first request.
This is because more than one request may have already been submitted.

Fix this by setting RQF_QUIET when BLK_STS_TARGET is returned to fail the
request early, we don't need to log a message because we did not actually
submit the command to the device, and the block layer code will handle the
error by submitting individual write bios.

Applied to 5.11/scsi-fixes, thanks!
