After checking the request_queue argument of funtion blk_execute_rq_nowait, I
now added three more patches, one to remove the same argument from
blk_execute_rq and other two to change the at_head argument from
blk_exeute_rq_{nowait} from int to bool.
Original patch can be checked here[1].
After this patch gets merged, my plan is to analyse the usage the gendisk
argument, is being set as NULL but the majority of callers.

Don't ever send something out that hasn't even been compiled. I already
detest doing kernel-wide cleanup changes like this, but when I do, I
need absolute confidence in it actually being tested. The fact that it
hasn't even been compiled is a big black mark on the submitter.
