Thanks much for your help.

This patch indeed introduced a regression, postflush requests will be completed
twice, so here dd_finish_request() is more than dd_inserted_request().

Clear RQF_USE_SCHED flag here should fix this problem, which should be ok
since finish_request() is the last callback, this flag isn't needed anymore.

Jens, should I send this diff as another patch or resend updated v3?

Thanks.
