+Description:
+		For latency improvements, some storage devices could
+		provide a mechanism for servicing demand paging and
+		swapin requests in a high priority manner. Setting
+		these flags to 1 would get the requests marked with
+		REQ_RW_DMPG or REQ_RW_SWAPIN to be moved to the front
+		of elevator queue.
