Send write requests issued by the flush state machine through the normal I/O submission path including the I/O scheduler (if present) so that I/O scheduler policies are applied to writes with the FUA flag set. Separate the I/O scheduler members from the flush members in struct request since now a request may pass through both an I/O scheduler and the flush machinery. Note that the actual flush requests, which have no bio attached to the request still bypass the I/O schedulers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
