I thought that it'd be good to have an error history in debufs. For example,
we can have a set of reasons defined as enum and put the error counts per
SBI_NEED_FSCK along with error number like ENOMEM, EIO, and so on. The goal
would be to understand whether we're getting SBI_NEED_FSCK which triggers
fsck in practical.
