[ Upstream commit 9bce6b5f ]

Commit 1f47ed29 ("block: cleanup and fix batch completion adding
conditions") modified the evaluation criteria for the third argument,
'ioerror', in the blk_mq_add_to_batch() function. Initially, the
function had checked if 'ioerror' equals zero. Following the commit, it
started checking for negative error values, with the presumption that
such values, for instance -EIO, would be passed in.

However, blk_mq_add_to_batch() callers do not pass negative error
values. Instead, they pass status codes defined in various ways:

- NVMe PCI and Apple drivers pass NVMe status code
- virtio_blk driver passes the virtblk request header status byte
- null_blk driver passes blk_status_t

These codes are either zero or positive, therefore the revised check
fails to function as intended. Specifically, with the NVMe PCI driver,
this modification led to the failure of the blktests test case nvme/039.
In this test scenario, errors are artificially injected to the NVMe
driver, resulting in positive NVMe status codes passed to
blk_mq_add_to_batch(), which unexpectedly processes the failed I/O in a
batch. Hence the failure.

To correct the ioerror check within blk_mq_add_to_batch(), make all
callers to uniformly pass the argument as boolean. Modify the callers to
check their specific status codes and pass the boolean value 'is_error'.
Also describe the arguments of blK_mq_add_to_batch as kerneldoc.
