Given a linkchain like this:
req0(link_flag)-->req1(link_flag)-->...-->reqn(no link_flag)
There is a problem:
- if some intermediate linked req like req1 's submittion fails, reqs
after it won't be cancelled.
- sqpoll disabled: maybe it's ok since users can get the error info
of req1 and stop submitting the following sqes.
- sqpoll enabled: definitely a problem, the following sqes will be
submitted in the next round.
The solution is to refactor the code logic to:
- if a linked req's submittion fails, just mark it and the head(if it
exists) as REQ_F_FAIL. Leverage req->result to indicate whether it
is failed or cancelled.
- submit or fail the whole chain when we come to the end of it.

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.
