Because ret holds the amount of data so far decrypted.  We should only return
an error if we didn't decrypt any (ie. ret == 0 at the time of error).

Actually, I should get rid of rreq->rsize since there's now a function,
->prepare_read() to deal with this.

Could be.

See the comment.  24 allows three extra words and 16 two.  Actually, I should
probably express it as a multiple of sizeof(long).  But this allows netfslib
to allocate (sub)request structs for ceph from the default mempool by allowing
a little bit of extra space.
