From e26738e037f34aedfe05e412f442833f44f4a6e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2017 16:03:11 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] block: add a error_count field to struct request This is for the legacy floppy and ataflop drivers that currently abuse ->errors for this purpose. It's stashed away in a union to not grow the struct size, the other fields are either used by modern drivers for different purposes or the I/O scheduler before queing the I/O to drivers.
