blkdev_issue_flush() is a blocking function and returns only after

This patch adds a new function blkdev_issue_flush_no_wait(), which
uses submit_bio() instead of submit_bio_wait(), and accepts the
completion function and data from the caller.
Just open code the damn thing,
Ok. Thanks for the comments.
and drop the various superflous checks
while you're at it.
You mean at btrfs: write_dev_flush()
OR
block: blkdev_issue_flush() ?
Where I find
q = bdev_get_queue(bdev);
if (!q)
return -ENXIO
isn't needed as anyway generic_make_request_checks() will
check that down below.
Not too sure about the other two checks though.
Thanks, Anand
