FYI: One issue with this series is that make_request based drivers not have to access all REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA requests. We'll either need to add handling to empty REQ_FLUSH requests to all of them or figure out a way to prevent them getting sent. That is assuming they'll simply ignore REQ_FLUSH/REQ_FUA on normal writes.
