Subject: [PATCH 10/11] fs, block: propagate REQ_FLUSH/FUA interface to upper layers

Propagate deprecation of REQ_HARDBARRIER and new REQ_FLUSH/FUA
interface to upper layers.

* WRITE_BARRIER is marked deprecated and WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA and
  WRITE_FLUSH_FUA are added.

* REQ_COMMON_MASK now includes REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA so that they are
  copied from bio to request.

* BH_Ordered is marked deprecated and BH_Flush and BH_FUA are added.
