Hmmm... looking at it now, looks like we can kill them all actually. There are a lot of inconsistencies in this space. * BIO_RW_* are bit positions and accessed with liberal combination of bio_rw_flagged() and manual bitops. * QUEUE_FLAG_* are bit positions and has rather large collection of accessors. The accessors have locking asserts. * __REQ_* are bit positions but have counter part REQ_* bit masks defined and there are whole bunch of simple specific accessors. I think all these can just be converted to bit masks (and I'll be happy with that) but whether that would be desirable is a different matter. I think it would be best to hear what Jens' plan about flag cleanup is (who BTW is away till the end of the next week) before proceeding. Jens, can you please let us know what your plan is?
