Jens Axboe 190b02ed79 block: fix use-after-free in block flush handling
A recent commit reused the original request flags for the flush
queue handling. However, for some of the kick flush cases, the
original request was already completed. This caused a use after
free, if blk-mq wasn't used.

Fixes: 84fca1b0c4 ("block: pass failfast and driver-specific flags to flush requests")

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
