It's specific to Q_READY for me, as it's the request that returns void and has no possibility to inform of an error. The VDUSE userland instance could reply to other requests with REQ_RESULT_FAILED and the driver still has capacity to recover from the failure. If we always break the device on every request fail, we deny that possibility.
