This function already returns an int in the current for-5.8/block tree.

This seems a little odd in terms of code flow. Why not:
if (hctx->flags & BLK_MQ_F_FORCE_COMMIT_RQS) {
bd.last = false;
} else if (list_empty(list)) {
bd.last = true;
} else {
nxt = list_first_entry(list, struct request, queuelist);
bd.last = !blk_mq_get_driver_tag(nxt);
}

Maybe BLK_MQ_F_ALWAYS_COMMIT might be a better name? Also this
flag (just like the existing ones..) could really use a comment
explaining it.
