block: don't set REQ_NOMERGE unnecessarily
RQ_NOMERGE_FLAGS already clears defines which REQ flags aren't mergeable. There is no reason to specify it superflously. It only adds to confusion. Don't set REQ_NOMERGE for barriers and requests with specific queueing directive. REQ_NOMERGE is now exclusively used by the merging code. [ Impact: cleanup ] Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
