  Could you pick up this patch. Customers are hitting this issue on

  drivers:scsi:storvsc: Fix a bug in handling ring buffer failures that may result in I/O freeze

  When ring buffer returns an error indicating retry, storvsc may not
  return a proper error code to SCSI when bounce buffer is not used.
  This has introduced I/O freeze on RAID running atop storvsc devices.
  This patch fixes it by always returning a proper error code.
