After commit 923218f6166a ("blk-mq: don't allocate driver tag upfront for flush rq"), blk_mq_submit_bio() will call blk_insert_flush() directly to handle flush request rather than blk_mq_sched_insert_request() in the case of elevator. Then, all flush request either have set RQF_FLUSH_SEQ flag when call blk_mq_sched_insert_request(), or have inserted into hctx->dispatch. So, remove the dead code path.
