From: Mike Christie <mchristi@xxxxxxxxxx> In later patches the op will no longer be a bitmap, so we will not have REQ_WRITE set for all non reads like discard, flush, and write same. Drivers will still want to treat them as writes for accounting reasons, so this patch adds a helper to translate a op to a data direction.
