 Also I wonder about handling failure in RAID1.
 I think the code will currently treat it like a write error, and
 maybe record a bad block (then fail the device is writing the badblock
 record fails). Is that what were want?
Mainly to simplify the code. And I thought a normal discard should not fail.
If it fails, something is wrong, marked it as badblock maybe not bad.
That sounds like a VERY bad idea.
Failures happen for lots of reasons,
but generic comm errors are not an excuse to suddenly mark sectors as bad.
Not sure if I got it, but we treat discard similar like write. Did you
mean discard
request error is common?
