Propagate deprecation of REQ_HARDBARRIER and new REQ_FLUSH/FUA
interface to upper layers.
* WRITE_BARRIER is marked deprecated and WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA and
WRITE_FLUSH_FUA are added.
* REQ_COMMON_MASK now includes REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA so that they are
copied from bio to request.
* BH_Ordered is marked deprecated and BH_Flush and BH_FUA are added.
