Subject[RFC v2 0/2] virtio-pmem: Asynchronous flush
Date
From: Pankaj Gupta <pankaj.gupta@ionos.com>

Jeff reported preflush order issue with the existing implementation
of virtio pmem preflush. Dan suggested[1] to implement asynchronous flush
for virtio pmem using work queue as done in md/RAID. This patch series
intends to solve the preflush ordering issue and also makes the flush
asynchronous for the submitting thread.

Submitting this patch series for review. Sorry, It took me long time to
come back to this due to some personal reasons.

RFC v1 -> RFC v2
- More testing and bug fix.

Pankaj Gupta (2):
