3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Trond Myklebust <trond.mykleb...@primarydata.com> commit e9ae58aeee8842a50f7e199d602a5ccb2e41a95f upstream. We should ensure that we always set the pgio_header's error field if a READ or WRITE RPC call returns an error. The current code depends on 'hdr->good_bytes' always being initialised to a large value, which is not always done correctly by callers. When this happens, applications may end up missing important errors.
