Subject: drbd: explicitly submit meta data requests with REQ_NOIDLE
X-Git-Tag: v3.17-rc1~31^2~48
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2ed912e9d35b4d7d766a530f5dd14513a3ab9f64;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-exynos.git

drbd: explicitly submit meta data requests with REQ_NOIDLE

For some reason we have assumed NOIDLE was implied
by one of the other flags we set. It is not (anymore?).
Explicitly set REQ_NOIDLE for synchronous meta data updates,
or we can seriously starve random writes when using CFQ.
