David Howells 0ab4c95948 afs: Fix error propagation from server record check/update
afs_check/update_server_record() should be setting fc->error rather than
fc->ac.error as they're called from within the cursor iteration function.

afs_fs_cursor::error is where the error code of the attempt to call the
operation on multiple servers is integrated and is the final result,
whereas afs_addr_cursor::error is used to hold the error from individual
iterations of the call loop.  (Note there's also an afs_vl_cursor which
also wraps afs_addr_cursor for accessing VL servers rather than file
servers).

Fix this by setting fc->error in the afs_check/update_server_record() so
that any error incurred whilst talking to the VL server correctly
propagates to the final result.

This results in:

	kAFS: Unexpected error from FS.StoreData -512

being seen, even though the store-data op is non-interruptible.  The error
is actually coming from the server record update getting interrupted.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
