Jens Axboe 2719aa217e blk-mq: don't use sync workqueue flushing from drivers
A previous commit introduced the sync flush, which we need from
internal callers like blk_mq_quiesce_queue(). However, we also
call the stop helpers from drivers, particularly from ->queue_rq()
when we have to stop processing for a bit. We can't block from
those locations, and we don't have to guarantee that we're
fully flushed.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
