Subject: [PATCH 03/14] block: don't set REQ_NOMERGE unnecessarily
Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2009 14:02:47 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1236920578-2179-4-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1236920578-2179-1-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org>
Impact: cleanup
RQ_NOMERGE_FLAGS already clears defines which REQ flags aren't
mergeable. There is no reason to specify it superflously. It only
adds to confusion. Don't set REQ_NOMERGE for barriers and requests
with specific queueing directive. REQ_NOMERGE is now exclusively used
by the merging code.
