Currently, IOCB_NOWAIT is ignored in direct io, REQ_NOWAIT is only set
when IOCB_HIPRI is set. But REQ_NOWAIT should be set as well when
IOCB_NOWAIT is set.

Hi all,
I tested fio io_uring direct read for a file on ext4 filesystem on a
nvme ssd. I found that IOCB_NOWAIT is ignored in iomap layer, which
means REQ_NOWAIT is not set in bio->bi_opf. This makes nowait IO a
normal IO. Since I'm new to iomap and block layer, I sincerely ask
yours opinions in case I misunderstand the code which is very likely
to happen.:)
