md/raid5: For odirect-write performance, do not set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE.
'sync' writes set both REQ_SYNC and REQ_NOIDLE. O_DIRECT writes set REQ_SYNC but not REQ_NOIDLE. We currently assume that a REQ_SYNC request will not be followed by more requests and so set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE to expedite the request. This is appropriate for sync requests, but not for O_DIRECT requests. So make the setting of STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE conditional on REQ_NOIDLE rather than REQ_SYNC. This is consistent with the documented meaning of REQ_NOIDLE: __REQ_NOIDLE, /* don't anticipate more IO after this one */ Signed-off-by: Jianpeng Ma <majianpeng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
