Give this is being spread all over the kernel way outside the block layer and IO path, shouldn't this have some kind of namespace component to the name? i.e "req_op_is_write()"?
The READ/WRITE #defines alias to the request ops, so this helper is rather global as well. Not that I like it, but it will take a while to clean that up, including making various things __bitwise annotated enums to get proper sparse type checking.
