[PATCH 3/5] block: preserve errno from fdatasync failures

[Daniel P . Berrangé]

When fdatasync() fails on a file backend we set a flag that
short-circuits any future attempts to call fdatasync(). The
first failure returns the true errno, but the later short-
circuited calls return a generic EIO. The latter is unhelpful
because fdatasync() can return a variety of errnos, including
EACCESS.
