From: Tomohiro Kusumi <tkusumi@tuxera.com>

Some runtime configurations can cause threads/processes to terminate
without any I/O performed, yet with no explicit error message, which
is quite confusing. In the example below, fio finishes with neither
error nor regular statistics due to file offset + bs being larger
than the file size while in get_io_u().

This commit calls log_err() when this happens. Since it's difficult
to tell the exact reason after thread has left the main I/O loop[*],
it gives advice to use a command line option --debug=io, similar to
the way td_io_init() gives advice.

[*] It can't just replace dprint(FD_IO, ...) calls with td_verror()
for e.g. while in get_io_u(), since those are also used by non error
paths too.
