Filipe Manana 1636d1d77e Btrfs: fix direct IO requests not reporting IO error to user space
If a bio for a direct IO request fails, we were not setting the error in
the parent bio (the main DIO bio), making us not return the error to
user space in btrfs_direct_IO(), that is, it made __blockdev_direct_IO()
return the number of bytes issued for IO and not the error a bio created
and submitted by btrfs_submit_direct() got from the block layer.
This essentially happens because when we call:

   dio_end_io(dio_bio, bio->bi_error);

It does not set dio_bio->bi_error to the value of the second argument.
So just add this missing assignment in endio callbacks, just as we do in
the error path at btrfs_submit_direct() when we fail to clone the dio bio
or allocate its private object. This follows the convention of what is
done with other similar APIs such as bio_endio() where the caller is
responsible for setting the bi_error field in the bio it passes as an
argument to bio_endio().

This was detected by the new generic test cases in xfstests: 271, 272,
276 and 278. Which essentially setup a dm error target, then load the
error table, do a direct IO write and unload the error table. They
expect the write to fail with -EIO, which was not getting reported
when testing against btrfs.
