Note that SlruReportIOError() causes a non-local exit. To me, the
point of the loop seems to be that we want to close every single file,
apart from the failed ones. From that perspective, the patch disrupts
that intended behavior by exiting in the middle of the loop. It seems
we didn't want to bother collecting errors for every failed file in
that part.
