block: fix elevator init check

Browse source

We can't initalize the elevator fields for flushes as flush share space
in struct request with the elevator data.  But currently we can't
communicate that a request is a flush through blk_get_request as we
can only pass READ or WRITE, and the low-level code looks at the
possible NULL bio to check for a flush.

Fix this by allowing to pass any block op and flags, and by checking for
the flush flags in __get_request.
