blk_mq_flush_plug_list submits requests in the reverse order that they
were submitted, which leads to a rather suboptimal I/O pattern especially
in rotational devices. Fix this by rewriting nvme_queue_rqs so that it
always pops the requests from the passed in request list, and then adds
them to the head of a local submit list. This actually simplifies the
code a bit as it removes the complicated list splicing, at the cost of
extra updates of the rq_next pointer. As that should be cache hot
anyway it should be an easy price to pay.

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 reStructuredText 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.
