[PATCH] md multipathing fixes
I tried to get multipathing failover running and failed. It seems to be
that there are two bugs in multipath.c :
- If a path/request fails mp_bh->path doesn't get updated to the new
path. Thus multipath_end_request will access a NULL pointer if a
redirected request returns.
- After fixing this I experienced several other errors. First of all in
bio->bi_flags the BIO_UPTODATE flag is not set when redirecting a
request.
Causing the md driver to think that every redirected request failed
when it returns. Since that alone didn't fix the problems, I simply
copied the master_bio again and it looks like everything seems to work.
