So this now includes the case of the hardware queue being full
and the request needs to be queued until space opens up again.
In this case, we should not do dev_err. So you need to be able
to distinguish between the hardware queue being full vs. a real
fatal error on the request (e.g., out-of-memory or some hardware
failure).

Thanks,
