[PATCH] md: use REQ_NOIDLE flag in md_super_write()
From: Namhyung Kim <hidden>
Date: 2011-08-03 16:00:09
Queue idling is used for the anticipation of immediate sequencial I/O's but md_super_write() is a kind of one- shot operation, coupled with md_super_wait(), so the idling in this case will be just a waste of time. Specifying REQ_NOIDLE prevents it. Instead of adding the flag to submit_bio() directly, use pre-defined macro WRITE_FLUSH_FUA.
