From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Currently when a buffer with attached log items has an IO error
it called ->iop_error for each attched log item. These all call
xfs_set_li_failed() to handle the error, but we are about to change
the way log items manage buffers. hence we first need to remove the
per-item dependency on buffer handling done by xfs_set_li_failed().

We already have specific buffer type IO completion routines, so move
the log item error handling out of the generic error handling and
into the log item specific functions so we can implement per-type
error handling easily.

This requires a more complex return value from the error handling
code so that we can take the correct action the failure handling
requires.  This results in some repeated boilerplate in the
functions, but that can be cleaned up later once all the changes
cascade through this code.

This looks like a subtle logic change. The current code issues the
internal retry if the flag isn't set (i.e. first ioerror in the
sequence) or if the current error code differs from the previous. This
code only looks at ->b_last_error if the fail flag wasn't set.

I like the enum, but I have a hard time distinguishing what the
difference is between FINISH and DONE based on the naming. I think
RESUBMIT would be more clear than DONE and perhaps have the resubmit in
the caller, but then we'd have to duplicate that as well. Eh, perhaps it
makes sense to defer such potential cleanups to the end.

Yeah, well spotted. Brain fart: !A||!B == !(A && B). It should be:

	if ((bp->b_flags & (XBF_STALE | XBF_WRITE_FAIL)) &&
	    bp->b_last_error == bp->b_error)
		return false;

It was really just describing the action the caller needs to take.
i.e. "buffer IO still needs finishing" vs "buffer IO is done,
nothing more to do" vs "Buffer IO needs failure completion".

Yeah, renaming just cascades the rename through multiple patches at
this point. I'll take a note for later.
