When a request R is absorbed by request M, it is appended to the "mr_next" queue led by M, and is completed together with the completion of M, in virtio_blk_rw_complete.
With error policy equals stop, if M has an I/O error, now R also gets prepended to the per device DMA restart queue, which will be retried when VM resumes. It leads to a double completion (in symptoms of memory corruption or use after free). Adding R to the queue is superfluous, only M needs to be in the queue. Fix this by marking request R as "merged" and skipping it in virtio_blk_handle_rw_error.
