Documentation/block/barrier.txt is not in sync with the actual code: - blk_queue_ordered() no longer has a gfp_mask parameter - blk_queue_ordered_locked() no longer exists - sd_prepare_flush() looks slightly different

The only difference between the two functions is whether or not the
caller is holding q->queue_lock on entry. The latter expects the
caller is holding the lock.

@q : the queue in question
@ordered : the ordered mode the driver/device supports
@prepare_flush_fn : this function should prepare @rq such that it
flushes cache to physical medium when executed
@gfp_mask : gfp_mask used when allocating data structures
for ordered processing
