floppy: use a statically allocated error counter
Interrupt handler bad_flp_intr() may cause a UAF on the recently freed request just to increment the error count. There's no point keeping that one in the request anyway, and since the interrupt handler uses a static pointer to the error which cannot be kept in sync with the pending request, better make it use a static error counter that's reset for each new request. This reset now happens when entering redo_fd_request() for a new request via set_next_request(). One initial concern about a single error counter was that errors on one floppy drive could be reported on another one, but this problem is not real given that the driver uses a single drive at a time, as that PC-compatible controllers also have this limitation by using shared signals. As such the error count is always for the "current" drive.
