block: add a REQ_NOUNMAP flag for REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES
If this flag is set logical provisioning capable device should release space for the zeroed blocks if possible, if it is not set devices should keep the blocks anchored. Also remove an out of sync kerneldoc comment for a static function that would have become even more out of data with this change. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Martin K.
