I was not sure of xen/virtio scsi uses of BLK_STS_NEXUS/DID_NEXUS_FAILURE.
The virtio spec's description for VIRTIO_SCSI_S_NEXUS_FAILURE:
if the nexus is suffering a failure but retrying on other paths might
yield a different result.
looks like the description for DID_NEXUS_FAILURE in scsi_status.h.
To me the the description sounded generic where it could used for
other errors like the endpoint/port for the I_T is removed.
However, the qemu code only uses VIRTIO_SCSI_S_NEXUS_FAILURE for
reservation conflicts. If we are saying that is always the case in
other virt implementations, I don't even need this patch :) and we
can do what you requested and do more of a rename.
