3.2.63-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: James Bottomley <JBottomley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 89fb4cd1f717a871ef79fa7debbe840e3225cd54 upstream.
Flush commands don't transfer data and thus need to be special cased
in the I/O completion handler so that we can propagate errors to
the block layer and filesystem.
