block, drivers, fs: rename REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH

To avoid confusion between REQ_OP_FLUSH, which is handled by
request_fn drivers, and upper layers requesting the block layer
perform a flush sequence along with possibly a WRITE, this patch
renames REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH.

drbd: avoid potential deadlock during handshake

During handshake communication, we also reconsider our device size,
using drbd_determine_dev_size(). Just in case we need to change the
offsets or layout of our on-disk metadata, we lock out application
and other meta data IO, and wait for the activity log to be "idle"
(no more referenced extents).

If this handshake happens just after a connection loss, with a fencing
policy of "resource-and-stonith", we have frozen IO.

If, additionally, the activity log was "starving" (too many incoming
random writes at that point in time), it won't become idle, ever,
because of the frozen IO, and this would be a lockup of the receiver
thread, and consquentially of DRBD.

Previous logic (re-)initialized with a special "empty" transaction
block, which required the activity log to fully drain first.

Instead, write out some standard activity log transactions.
Using lc_try_lock_for_transaction() instead of lc_try_lock() does not
care about pending activity log references, avoiding the potential
deadlock.

drbd: separate out __al_write_transaction helper function

To be able to "force out" an activity log transaction,
even if there are no pending updates.

This will be used to relocate the on-disk activity log,
if the on-disk offsets have to be changed,
without the need to empty the activity log first.

While at it, move the definition,
so we can drop the forward declaration of a static helper.
