Merge branch 'for-2.6.37/barrier' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block

* 'for-2.6.37/barrier' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block: (46 commits)
  xen-blkfront: disable barrier/flush write support
  Added blk-lib.c and blk-barrier.c was renamed to blk-flush.c
  block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT
  aic7xxx_old: removed unused 'req' variable
  block: remove the BH_Eopnotsupp flag
  block: remove the BLKDEV_IFL_BARRIER flag
  block: remove the WRITE_BARRIER flag
  swap: do not send discards as barriers
  fat: do not send discards as barriers
  ext4: do not send discards as barriers
  jbd2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  jbd2: Modify ASYNC_COMMIT code to not rely on queue draining on barrier
  jbd: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  nilfs2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  reiserfs: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  gfs2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  btrfs: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  xfs: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage
  block: pass gfp_mask and flags to sb_issue_discard
  dm: convey that all flushes are processed as empty
