SubjectRe: [RFC v3 0/2] virtio-pmem: Asynchronous flush
ping

> 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 makes the flush asynchronous
> for the submitting thread. Also, adds the flush coalscing logic.
>
> Submitting this RFC v3 series for review. Thank You!
>
> RFC v2 -> RFC v3
> - Improve commit log message - patch1.
> - Improve return error handling for Async flush.
> - declare'INIT_WORK' only once.
> - More testing and bug fix.
