[PATCH 5.19 018/207] block: stop setting the nomerges flags in blk_cleanup_queue

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 26 2022 - 07:39:21 EST


From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 0e3534022f26ae51f7cf28347a253230604b6f4e ]

These flags only apply to file system I/O, and all file system I/O is
already drained by del_gendisk and thus can't be in progress when
blk_cleanup_queue is called.
