 +               * finished. Even we don't do this, driver can't dispatch next
 +               * requests and will requeue them. And this can improve
 +               * throughput too. For example, we have request flush1, write1,
 +               * flush 2. flush1 is dispatched, then queue is hold, write1
 +               * isn't inserted to queue. After flush1 is finished, flush2
 +               * will be dispatched. Since disk cache is already clean,
 +               * flush2 will be finished very soon, so looks like flush2 is
 +               * folded to flush1.
 +               * Since the queue is hold, a flag is set to indicate the queue
 +               * should be restarted later. Please see flush_end_io() for
 +               * details.
