Ye Bin 8a7518931b block: Fix fsync always failed if once failed
We do test with inject error fault base on v4.19, after test some time we found
sync /dev/sda always failed.
[root@localhost] sync /dev/sda
sync: error syncing '/dev/sda': Input/output error

scsi log as follows:

As 8d6996630c introduce 'fq->rq_status', this data only update when 'flush_rq'
reference count isn't zero. If flush request once failed and record error code
in 'fq->rq_status'. If there is no chance to update 'fq->rq_status',then do fsync
will always failed.
To address this issue reset 'fq->rq_status' after return error code to upper layer.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
