6.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit c1dbd8a849183b9c12d257ad3043ecec50db50b3 upstream.
When doing mkfs.xfs on a pmem device, the following warning was
reported:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 384 at block/blk-core.c:751 submit_bio_noacct
Modules linked in:
CPU: 2 PID: 384 Comm: mkfs.xfs Not tainted 6.4.0-rc7+ #154
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
RIP: 0010:submit_bio_noacct+0x340/0x520

The root cause is that submit_bio_noacct() needs bio_op() is either
WRITE or ZONE_APPEND for flush bio and async_pmem_flush() doesn't assign
REQ_OP_WRITE when allocating flush bio, so submit_bio_noacct just fail
the flush bio.
Simply fix it by adding the missing REQ_OP_WRITE for flush bio. And we
could fix the flush order issue and do flush optimization later.
