Subject: [PATCH] blk: clean up plug
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2015 10:28:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01bb5a7d9d50d0dbbeb8eadc11dc110ee999c2b5.1429205153.git.shli@fb.com> (raw)

Current code looks like inner plug gets flushed with a
blk_finish_plug(). Actually it's a nop. All requests/callbacks are added
to current->plug, while only outmost plug is assigned to current->plug.
So inner plug always has empty request/callback list, which makes
blk_flush_plug_list() a nop. This tries to make the code more clear.
