Subject: [PATCH 3.18 099/183] storvsc: ring buffer failures may result in I/O freeze

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

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

From: Long Li <longli@...rosoft.com>

commit e86fb5e8ab95f10ec5f2e9430119d5d35020c951 upstream.

When ring buffer returns an error indicating retry, storvsc may not
return a proper error code to SCSI when bounce buffer is not used.
This has introduced I/O freeze on RAID running atop storvsc devices.
This patch fixes it by always returning a proper error code.
