The qdio hardware may surpress further interrupts as long as a SBAL is in
the error state. That can lead to unnotified data in the SBALs following
the error state. To prevent this behaviour change the SBAL[s] in error
state immediately to another program owned state so interrupts are again
received for further traffic on the device.
