Subject: block: move bio queue-transition flag fixups into blk_steal_bios()
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b2c45ced591e6cf947560d2d290a51855926b774;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

block: move bio queue-transition flag fixups into blk_steal_bios()

blk_steal_bios() transfers bios from a request to a bio_list when the
request is requeued to a different queue. The NVMe multipath failover
path (nvme_failover_req) currently open-codes clearing of REQ_POLLED,
bi_cookie, and REQ_NOWAIT on each bio before calling blk_steal_bios().

Move these fixups into blk_steal_bios() itself so that any caller
automatically gets correct flag state when bios cross queue boundaries.
Simplify nvme_failover_req() accordingly.
