Currently when there is an IO error (or similar) on GC read path, pblk still move the line, which was currently under GC process to free state. Such a behaviour can lead to silent data mismatch issue. With this patch, the line which was under GC process on which some IO errors occurred, will be putted back to closed state (instead of free state as it was without this patch) and the L2P mapping for such a failed sectors will not be updated. Then in case of any user IOs to such a failed sectors, pblk would be able to return at least real IO error instead of stale data as it is right now.

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.
