Hannes Reinecke 63583cca74 [SCSI] Add detailed SCSI I/O errors
Instead of just passing 'EIO' for any I/O error we should be
notifying the upper layers with more details about the cause
of this error.

Update the possible I/O errors to:

- ENOLINK: Link failure between host and target
- EIO: Retryable I/O error
- EREMOTEIO: Non-retryable I/O error
- EBADE: I/O error restricted to the I_T_L nexus

'Retryable' in this context means that an I/O error _might_ be
restricted to the I_T_L nexus (vulgo: path), so retrying on another
nexus / path might succeed.

'Non-retryable' in general refers to a target failure, so this
error will always be generated regardless of the I_T_L nexus
it was send on.

I/O errors restricted to the I_T_L nexus might be retried
on another nexus / path, but they should _not_ be queued
if no paths are available.
