Subject: [PATCH 5.19 18/38] block: blk_queue_enter() / __bio_queue_enter() must return -EAGAIN for nowait

From: Stefan Roesch <shr@...com>

[ Upstream commit 56f99b8d06ef1ed1c9730948f9f05ac2b930a20b ]

Today blk_queue_enter() and __bio_queue_enter() return -EBUSY for the
nowait code path. This is not correct: they should return -EAGAIN
instead.

This problem was detected by fio. The following command exposed the
above problem:

t/io_uring -p0 -d128 -b4096 -s32 -c32 -F1 -B0 -R0 -X1 -n24 -P1 -u1 -O0 /dev/ng0n1

By applying the patch, the retry case is handled correctly in the slow
path.
