Subject[PATCH v3 05/15] block: Add REQ_ATOMIC flag
Date
From: Himanshu Madhani <himanshu.madhani@oracle.com>

Add flag REQ_ATOMIC, meaning an atomic operation. This should only be
used in conjunction with REQ_OP_WRITE.

We will not add a special "request atomic write" operation, as to try to
avoid maintenance effort for an operation which is almost the same as
REQ_OP_WRITE.
