DRBD requires stable pages because it may read the same bio data
multiple times for local disk I/O and network transmission, and in
some cases for calculating checksums.
The BLK_FEAT_STABLE_WRITES flag is set when the device is first
created, but blk_set_stacking_limits() clears it whenever a
backing device is attached. In some cases the flag may be
inherited from the backing device, but we want it to be enabled
at all times.
Unconditionally re-enable BLK_FEAT_STABLE_WRITES in
drbd_reconsider_queue_parameters() after the queue parameter
negotiations.
Also, document why we want this flag enabled in the first place.
