The value passed is 0 in all but "it can never happen" cases (and those
only in a couple of drivers) *and* it would've been lost on the way
out anyway, even if something tried to pass something meaningful.
Just don't bother.

Stop writing to scm after certain error conditions such as a concurrent
firmware upgrade. Resume to normal state once scm_blk_set_available is
called (due to an scm availability notification).

If a block device driver cannot fetch all requests from the blocklayer
it's in his responsibility to call the request function at a later time.
Normally this would be done after the next irq for the underlying device
is handled. However in situations where we have no outstanding request
we have to schedule the request function for a later time.
This is determined using an internal counter of requests issued to the
hardware.
In some cases where we give a request back to the block layer unhandled
the number of queued requests was not adjusted. Fix this class of
failures by adjusting queued_requests in all functions used to give
a request back to the block layer.
