Subject: [PATCH 14/18] drbd: explicitly submit meta data requests with REQ_NOIDLE
From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@...bit.com>
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.
