I think "no_flush" would be more in line with some of the other
functions in the kernel.  "wo" makes me think of "write only".  But
it's not a big deal.

I do wonder about the rules for when add_request is needed though, and
I need to look later in the series for the usage.  When I looked at it
in relation to fences, it didn't seem to be a good fit since it looked
like requests got freed when the active list was cleared, vs when they
were actually consumed by some user.

But this patch seems straightforward enough, so:
