[dm-devel] [PATCH][BUGFIX] dm-raid1: fix data lost on success return at log failure

[Takahiro Yasui <tyasui redhat com>]

This patch fix the case that I/Os return "success" (0) even though
they have never been attempted on the devices. When the log has
failed and the DM_RAID_HANDLE_ERRORS flag is not set, I/Os are put
in the failures queue and return "success" (0) in the do_failures()
function. This is really *data lost*. When the log has failed, all
I/Os should be held in kernel as 2.6.32 kernel does.
