commit 0c9d5b12 upstream.

fix_sync_read_error() modifies a bio on a newly faulty
device by setting bi_end_io to end_sync_write.
This ensure that put_buf() will still call rdev_dec_pending()
as required, but makes sure that subsequent code in
fix_sync_read_error() doesn't try to read from the device.

Unfortunately this interacts badly with sync_request_write()
which assumes that any bio with bi_end_io set to non-NULL
other than end_sync_read is safe to write to.

As the device is now faulty it doesn't make sense to write.
As the bio was recently used for a read, it is "dirty"
and not suitable for immediate submission.
In particular, ->bi_next might be non-NULL, which will cause
generic_make_request() to complain.

Break this interaction by refusing to write to devices
which are marked as Faulty.
