Looking over this, I see something strange in the commit in question:

 /*
  * upper 16 bits of bi_rw define the io priority of this bio

I haven't read the code in depth, but taking running numbers and doing
bitwise "or"
on them looks a bit strange to me.
So here BIO_RW_SYNC is (3 | 4) = 7, that is the same as BIO_RW_FAILFAST_DEV.
So for example bio_failfast_dev and bio_sync are the same.

Jens, could you comment on this please? Is this intentional?
