[PATCH 1/3] block: Requeue req as head if driver touched it

["Christian Löhle" <CLoehle@hyperstone.com>]

In case the driver set RQF_DONTPREP flag, requeue the request as head as
it is likely that the backing storage already had a request to an
adjacent region, so getting the requeued request out as soon as possible
may give us some performance benefit.
