[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/8] io: add ability to associate an error with a task

[Daniel P. Berrange]

Currently when a task fails, the error is never explicitly
associated with the task object, it is just passed along
through the completion callback. This adds ability to
explicitly associate an error with the task.
