From 3d2257f157c2324acbc0fa0fa54e8626a987edd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Woodhouse Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2009 07:35:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Make DISCARD_BARRIER and DISCARD_NOBARRIER writes instead of reads The commands are conceptually writes, and in the case of IDE and SCSI commands actually are writes. They were only reads because we thought that would interact better with the elevators. Now the elevators know about discard requests, that advantage no longer exists.
