never meant that source and target are in sync, only that they were at
some point (and at that point we transitioned into the READY phase).
The tangible problem is that we transition to READY once we are in sync
and s->synced is false. By resetting s->synced here, we will transition
from READY to READY once the error is resolved (if the job keeps
running), and that transition is not allowed.

Looked through.. Yes, seems s->synced used as "is ready". Isn't it
better to drop s->synced at all and use job_is_read() instead?
Sounds good, though I think for the change to be clear, I’d like to keep
this patch and then drop s->synced on top.

Hmm, s->actively_synced used only for assertion in
active_write_settle().. That's not wrong, just interesting.
