If there is a new request (rqc != NULL)  it will already be started
when reaching this point.
If rqc is set it will be started again at start_new_req.

I wonder if this paranoia check is necessary. If "status ==
MMC_BLK_SUCCESS" all bytes are transferred and no error returned from
mmc layer.
 __blk_end_request would always return 0 in this case, please comment
if you disagree.
