[PATCH] ext4: add error handling when discarding is fail in FITRIM ioctl

From: Namjae Jeon
Date: Sat Jan 21 2012 - 02:57:16 EST


Although free extents is proper not trimmed(mmc driver return error code while sending trim command), currently FITRIM ioctl return success.
I tried to add exception routine to inform user error code.

#> ./fitrim_test
end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 27232
EXT4-fs warning (device mmcblk0): ext4_trim_all_free:4857: Discard command returned error -5
