Make the subroutine get_smart_data() die with the error message from
running the `smartctl` command before. This is in preparation for the
next patch, which makes that command fail in certain scenarios.

The above is *fine* IMO, but for future reference, I'd recommend
something like this if $@ is only used in one place:

     die "Error getting S.M.A.R.T. data: $@\n" if $@;

Also, another convenient pattern I've seen (and also been using lately)
is the following---useful if you need to do a bit more than just die:

     if (my $err = $@) {
         # [...]
     }

+
      # bit 0 and 1 mark a fatal error, other bits are for disk status -> 
ignore (see man 8 smartctl)
-    if ((defined($returncode) && ($returncode & 0b00000011)) || $err) {
+    if ((defined($returncode) && ($returncode & 0b00000011))) {

The inner parentheses here are redundant, now that `|| $err` is gone ;)
But can IMO just be adapted in a tiny follow-up / when applying.

Thanks for pointing out both, should have taken a closer look here ;).

I've made those changes + a RFC with a possibly missing error handler and sent a v2: https://lore.proxmox.com/pve-devel/20250415071123.36921-1-d.k...@proxmox.com/T/#t
