Oh, let's look at "__blk_rq_prep_clone". dm calls that after
blk_get_request() for the blk-mq based multipath types and overrides the
destinations cmd_flags with the source's even though the source was not
allocated from a blk-mq based queue, much less a shared tag.

Untested patch. This will also preserve the failfast cmd_flag dm-mpath
set after allocating.

Making the two cases different is a bit... nonsensical. We should do this for both cases, if safe, or move the MQ_INFLIGHT flag and expand the CLONE_MASK.

Expanding the clone mask won't do any good since the src doesn't come
from blk-mq and wouldn't ever have MQ_INFLIGHT set. Blk-mq initializes
the cmd_flags when you get one so I assumed OR'ing was safe. For the
non-blk-mq case, we have no guarantees how the req was initialized and
could have nonsense cmd_flags.
