4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx>
commit 87c279e613f848c691111b29d49de8df3f4f56da upstream.
Commit 0809e3ac6231 ("block: fix plug list flushing for nomerge queues")
updated blk_mq_make_request() to set request_count even when
blk_queue_nomerges() returns true. However, blk_mq_make_request() only
does limited plugging and doesn't use request_count;
blk_sq_make_request() is the one that should have been fixed. Do that
and get rid of the unnecessary work in the mq version.
