Subject: [PATCH] mmc: block: ensure error propagation for non-blk

Requests to the mmc layer usually come through a block device IO. The exceptions are the ioctl interface, RPMB chardev ioctl and debugfs, which issue their own blk_mq requests through blk_execute_rq and do not query the BLK_STS error but the mmcblk-internal drv_op_result. This patch ensures that drv_op_result defaults to an error and has to be overwritten by the operation to be considered successful.

The behavior leads to a bug where the request never propagates the error, e.g. by directly erroring out at mmc_blk_mq_issue_rq if mmc_blk_part_switch fails. The ioctl caller of the rpmb chardev then can never see an error (BLK_STS_IOERR, but drv_op_result is unchanged) and thus may assume that their call executed successfully when it did not.

While always checking the blk_execute_rq return value would be advised, let's eliminate the error by always setting drv_op_result as -EIO to be overwritten on success (or other error)
