While this is a one-liner, I'm not sure it is "trivial enough", just because
it is not at all obvious we shuold clear error here and not somewhere else.
I mean, shouldn't s->error be cleared somewhere when next request is queued,
or something like that?

That's basically why I haven't applied this initially.
