Is it getting failed by accident? In scsi_io_completion we check for UAs 
and will retry if the removable bit is not set. That check is after 
scsi_end_request though (is the scsi_end_request call failing the IO).

Did you guys also want REPORTED_LUNS_DATA_HAS_CHANGED to be retried too. 
I think scsi_dh_alua's REPORTED_LUNS_DATA_HAS_CHANGED maybe should be 
genericly retried, because it seems for both errors we will want to 
retry for all devices.
