Unlike REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA doesn't mandate any ordering
against other bio's. This patch relaxes ordering around flushes.
* A flush bio is no longer deferred to workqueue directly. It's
processed like other bio's but __split_and_process_bio() uses
md->flush_bio as the clone source. md->flush_bio is initialized to
empty flush during md initialization and shared for all flushes.
* As a flush bio now travels through the same execution path as other
bio's, there's no need for dedicated error handling path either. It
can use the same error handling path in dec_pending(). Dedicated
error handling removed along with md->flush_error.
* When dec_pending() detects that a flush has completed, it checks
whether the original bio has data. If so, the bio is queued to the
deferred list w/ REQ_FLUSH cleared; otherwise, it's completed.
* As flush sequencing is handled in the usual issue/completion path,
dm_wq_work() no longer needs to handle flushes differently. Now its
only responsibility is re-issuing deferred bio's the same way as
_dm_request() would. REQ_FLUSH handling logic including
process_flush() is dropped.
* There's no reason for queue_io() and dm_wq_work() write lock
dm->io_lock. queue_io() now only uses md->deferred_lock and
dm_wq_work() read locks dm->io_lock.
* bio's no longer need to be queued on the deferred list while a flush
is in progress making DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD unncessary. Drop it.
This avoids stalling the device during flushes and simplifies the
implementation.
