[Qemu-devel] [RFC v3 07/14] blockjobs: ensure abort is called for cancelled jobs

[John Snow]

Presently, even if a job is canceled post-completion as a result of
a failing peer in a transaction, it will still call .commit because
nothing has updated or changed its return code.

The reason why this does not cause problems currently is because
backup's implementation of .commit checks for cancellation itself.

I'd like to simplify this contract:

(1) Abort is called if the job/transaction fails
(2) Commit is called if the job/transaction succeeds

To this end: A job's return code, if 0, will be forcibly set as
-ECANCELED if that job has already concluded. Remove the now
redundant check in the backup job implementation.

This does NOT affect mirror jobs that are "canceled" during their
synchronous phase. The mirror job itself forcibly sets the canceled
property to false prior to ceding control, so such cases will invoke
the "commit" callback.
