I've been following the thread. I believe Adrian has NACKed this patch,
by saying "It is absolutely unacceptable to return I/O errors to the
upper layers for segments that do not have errors."
I think it's possible to merge patches to improve the situation (such
as the idea of noticing a card disappearing earlier), but your initial
patch is not the patch to do that. You should continue to work with
Adrian -- when he's happy that a patch does not break the semantics
above, we can consider merging it.
Thanks,
