Ok, I understand your point. Discard errors should be logged at block
layer. Reasonable too.
This is already happening. In case of discard error:
#> ./fitrim_test
end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 27232
#>
#> echo $?
0
Even though error happend during discard, the return value is success.
I think this is little confusing.
