Jan Höppner b9c10f68e2 s390/dasd: Fix read inconsistency for ESE DASD devices
Read requests that return with NRF error are partially completed in
dasd_eckd_ese_read(). The function keeps track of the amount of
processed bytes and the driver will eventually return this information
back to the block layer for further processing via __dasd_cleanup_cqr()
when the request is in the final stage of processing (from the driver's
perspective).

For this, blk_update_request() is used which requires the number of
bytes to complete the request. As per documentation the nr_bytes
parameter is described as follows:
   "number of bytes to complete for @req".

This was mistakenly interpreted as "number of bytes _left_ for @req"
leading to new requests with incorrect data length. The consequence are
inconsistent and completely wrong read requests as data from random
memory areas are read back.

Fix this by correctly specifying the amount of bytes that should be used
to complete the request.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
