Igor Pylypiv 4cc8b0110c scsi: core: Do not retry I/Os during depopulation
[ Upstream commit 9ff7c383b8ac0c482a1da7989f703406d78445c6 ]

Fail I/Os instead of retry to prevent user space processes from being
blocked on the I/O completion for several minutes.

Retrying I/Os during "depopulation in progress" or "depopulation restore in
progress" results in a continuous retry loop until the depopulation
completes or until the I/O retry loop is aborted due to a timeout by the
scsi_cmd_runtime_exceeced().

Depopulation is slow and can take 24+ hours to complete on 20+ TB HDDs.
Most I/Os in the depopulation retry loop end up taking several minutes
before returning the failure to user space.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
