This can go in the case statement on retry and then you don't need
to check for i > 0 or, well, bp->b_error. i.e.

		swtich (bp->b_error) {
		case -EBADCRC:
		case -EIO:
		case -EFSCORRUPTED:
			/* try again from different copy */
			continue;
		0:
			/* good copy, rewrite it to repair bad copy */
			xfs_bwrite(bp);
			/* fallthrough */
		default:
			return bp;
		}

Cheers,

Dave.
