[PATCH] block: make sure FSEQ_DATA request has the same rq_disk asthe original

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Sep 02 2010 - 13:43:46 EST


rq->rq_disk and bio->bi_bdev->bd_disk may differ if a request has
passed through remapping drivers. FSEQ_DATA request incorrectly
followed bio->bi_bdev->bd_disk ending up being issued w/ mismatching
rq_disk. Make it follow orig_rq->rq_disk.

Kiyoshi, can you please apply this patch on top and verify that the
problem goes away? The reason I and Mike didn't see the problem was
because we were using REQ_FUA capable underlying device, which makes
block layer bypass sequencing for FSEQ_DATA request.

Thanks.
