For devices that support flushing, we allocate a bio, submit, wait for
it and then free it. The bio allocation does not fail so ENOMEM is not a
problem but we still may unnecessarily stress the allocation subsystem.
Instead, we can allocate the device at the same time we allocate the
device and reuse it each time we need to flush the barriers. The bio is
reset before each use. Reference counting is simplified to just device
allocation (get) and freeing (put).
Note for write_dev_flush: we check the queue flush status again as we
can't use the existence of bio as before.
Looks good few items as below..

Originally it went through the btrfsic. There is no mention
of this change if its not an oversight.

It returns here if its write through. Which can be toggled
after write_dev_flush() has been called such as..
echo "write back" > /sys/block/sdd/queue/write_cache
write_dev_flush(sdd)
echo "write through" > /sys/block/sdd/queue/write_cache
wait_dev_flush(sdd)
So it would fails to check error.
