[PATCH] block: initialize flush request with WRITE_FLUSH insteadof REQ_FLUSH

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Mon Aug 30 2010 - 11:43:28 EST


init_flush_request() only set REQ_FLUSH when initializing flush
requests making them READ requests. Use WRITE_FLUSH instead.

So, this was the culprit for the incorrect data direction for flush
requests.

Thanks.
