Well, what we have right not is entirely broken, given that the
block layer doesn't initialize ->timeout on TYPE_FS requeuests.

We either need to revert that initial commit or apply something like
the attached patch as a quick fix.

Subject: sd: set a non-zero timeout for flush requests

rq->timeout for TYPE_FS commands needs to be initialized by the driver,
so we can't simply multiply it.
