Note that the renaming patch would include a move from REQ_HARDBARRIER
to REQ_FLUSH_FUA, so things just using REQ_HARDBARRIER will fail to
compile. And while out of tree filesystems do exist they it's their
problem to keep up with kernel changes. They decide not to be part
of the Linux kernel, so it'll be their job to keep up with it.

I don't think doing those changes in a separate commit is a good idea.

Here's the dm patch. It only handles normal bio based dm yet, which
I understand and can test. request based dm (multipath) still needs
work.
