Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 006/254] rbd: Fix error recovery in rbd_obj_read_sync()

3.16.7-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>

commit a8d4205623ae965e36c68629db306ca0695a2771 upstream.

When we fail to allocate page vector in rbd_obj_read_sync() we just
basically ignore the problem and continue which will result in an oops
later. Fix the problem by returning proper error.
