[ Upstream commit 1b9e619c5bc8235cfba3dc4ced2fb0e3554a05d4 ]
I was seeing disk flushes still happening when I mounted a Btrfs filesystem with nobarrier for testing. This is because we use FUA to write out the first super block, and on devices without FUA support, the block layer translates FUA to a flush. Even on devices supporting true FUA, using FUA when we asked for no barriers is surprising.
