The original commit f84cb8a46a771f36a04a02c61ea635c968ed5f6a("dm mpath:
disable WRITE SAME if it fails") disables WRITE SAME in the DM multipath
device if it fails, but when the DM linear device stacks ontop of the
multipath device it doesn't help.

this patch adds DM linear end_io method to catch WRITE SAME errors and
disables WRITE SAME in the DM linear device's queue_limits if an
underlying device disables it.

Before this patch:

dm linear device(dm-20): ocfs2-fs;
multipath device(dm-6);
scsi device(sdt,sdu);

After a WRITE SAME bio fails, the DM linear device does not disable the
WRITE SAME, although the underlying device(DM multipath device) has
disabled WRITE SAME.

After this patch:

dm linear device(dm-20): ocfs2-fs;
multipath device(dm-6);
scsi device(sdt,sdu);

After a WRITE SAME bio fails, the underlying device(DM multipath
device) disables WRITE SAME and then the DM linear device also disables
WRITE SAME.

No.  If linear needs to hook end_io something has gone seriously wrong.
Find the underlying source of the problem and fix that instead.

How does your patch address striped targets?
 
Shouldn't this code be taken out of mpath and moved to dm.c and applied to all
targets (both bio and rq-based, at least where WRITE SAME is supported)?
