Re: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH] Revert "f2fs: use flush command instead of FUA for zoned device"

[Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>]

Jaegeuk,

Quoted commit message from commit c550e25bca66 ("f2fs: use flush command
instead of FUA for zoned device")
"
The block layer for zoned disk can reorder the FUA'ed IOs. Let's use flush
command to keep the write order.
"

It seems mq-deadline use fifo queue and make queue depth of zone device
as 1 to IO order, so why FUA'ed write node IOs can be reordered by block
layer?

Thanks,
