When we receive a flush command (or "barrier" in DRBD), we currently use a REQ_OP_FLUSH with the REQ_PREFLUSH flag set. REQ_OP_FLUSH is supposed to be an empty bio with the sole purpose of flushing the disk. REQ_PREFLUSH is used for REQ_OP_WRITE bios to additionally signal that a flush should be issued, so it is redundant here. Since commit b4a6bb3a67aa ("block: add a sanity check for non-write flush/fua bios"), this triggers a warning in the block layer. So remove the REQ_PREFLUSH flag when allocating the bio.
