md/raid10: add failfast handling for reads.
If a device is marked FailFast, and it is not the only device we can read from, we mark the bio as MD_FAILFAST. If this does fail-fast, we don't try read repair but just allow failure. If it was the last device, it doesn't get marked Faulty so the retry happens on the same device - this time without FAILFAST. A subsequent failure will not retry but will just pass up the error. During resync we may use FAILFAST requests, and on a failure we will simply use the other device(s). During recovery we will only use FAILFAST in the unusual case were there are multiple places to read from - i.e. if there are > 2 devices. If we get a failure we will fail the device and complete the resync/recovery with remaining devices. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com>
