This is the start of 1/ above. It's very lightly tested, it's verified
to DTRT here at least and not crash :-)
It gets rid of the ->issue_flush_fn() queue callback, all the driver
knowledge resides in ->prepare_flush_fn() anyways. blkdev_issue_flush()
then just reuses the empty-bio approach to queue an empty barrier, this
should work equally well for stacked and non-stacked devices.
While this patch isn't complete yet, it's clearly the right direction to
go.
I didn't convert drivers/md/* to support this approach, I'm leaving that
to you :-)
