block: blk_add_rq_to_plug(): clear stale 'last' after flush
[ Upstream commit 878eb6e48f240d02ed1c9298020a0b6370695f24 ]
blk_mq_flush_plug_list() empties ->mq_list and request we'd peeked there
before that call is gone; in any case, we are not dealing with a mix
of requests for different queues now - there's no requests left in the
plug.
