From 422765c2638924da10ff363b5eed77924911bdc7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jianpeng Ma Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 14:46:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block: Remove should_sort judgement when flush blk_plug In commit 975927b942c932,it add blk_rq_pos to sort rq when flushing. Although this commit was used for the situation which blk_plug handled multi devices on the same time like md device. I think there must be some situations like this but only single device. So remove the should_sort judgement. Because the parameter should_sort is only for this purpose,it can delete should_sort from blk_plug.
