On old native type 3490 tape devices a Read Opposite error recovery procedure on Error Recovery Action Code (ERA) 26 was issued if a Read Forward command failed. This recovery procedure was implemented with the Read Backward command. As a preparation for a subsequent commit, that adds support for bigger block sizes, remove the 34xx ERA 26 related recovery code. The recovery code would need to be adapted to the bigger block sizes, without any possibility to be tested, as modern Virtual Tape Servers (VTS) do neither report ERA 26 on a Read Forward command failure nor support the error recovery procedure anymore.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
