(patch) md_make_request error checking

The *_make_request functions appear to be only used in md-related files.
Checking these, all *_make_request() funcs return zero for all cases.

This patch against 2.1.118 gives us the ability to bail in
the md personality-specific *_make_request funcs (if we want to).
