I guess the disk name was added to ease some handling in userspace
tools. But if all other tracepoints don't have disk name shown, I
think I'd better follow the convention. I did overlook this when I
ported this patch. Will remove it.

I may misunderstand your comments. I just followed what
block_rq_complete tracepoint does. Or the linux-block community is
converting all tracepoints to show blk status code instead of
conventional errno?

And the userspace tool doesn't know blk status code and still expects
the conventional errno. For example, rasdaemon reads block_rq_complete
events now and have the below:

static const struct {
int error;
const char *name;
} blk_errors[] = {
{ -EOPNOTSUPP, "operation not supported error" },
{ -ETIMEDOUT, "timeout error" },
{ -ENOSPC, "critical space allocation error" },
{ -ENOLINK, "recoverable transport error" },
{ -EREMOTEIO, "critical target error" },
{ -EBADE, "critical nexus error" },
{ -ENODATA, "critical medium error" },
{ -EILSEQ, "protection error" },
{ -ENOMEM, "kernel resource error" },
{ -EBUSY, "device resource error" },
{ -EAGAIN, "nonblocking retry error" },
{ -EREMCHG, "dm internal retry error" },
{ -EIO, "I/O error" },
};

This patch aims to add block_rq_err tracepoint to replace
block_rq_complete in rasdaemon.
