From: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@xxxxxxxxxx>
Split the 'flush_list', which contained a mix of both 'mark' and 'clear'
requests, into two distinct lists ('mark_list' and 'clear_list').
The device mapper log implementations (used by various DM targets) are
allowed to cache 'mark' and 'clear' requests until a 'flush' is
received. Until now, these cached requests were kept in the same list.
They will now be put into distinct lists to facilitate group processing
of these requests (in the next patch).
