As 8d69966 introduce 'fq->rq_status', this data only update when 'flush_rq'
reference count isn't zero. If flush request once failed and record error code
in 'fq->rq_status'. If there is no chance to update 'fq->rq_status',then do fsync
will always failed.
To address this issue reset 'fq->rq_status' after return error code to upper layer.
