Subject: [PATCH] Only the first two bits in bio->bi_rw and rq->flags match
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc2~256^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1959d21232931dfa686769a21161413f10d6652f;p=karo-tx-linux.git

[PATCH] Only the first two bits in bio->bi_rw and rq->flags match

Not three, as assumed. This causes the barrier bit to be needlessly set
for some IO.
