- * blkdev_scsi_issue_flush_fn - issue flush for SCSI devices

- * Description:
- *    Devices understanding the SCSI command set, can use this function as
- *    a helper for issuing a cache flush. Note: driver is required to store
- *    the error offset (in case of error flushing) in ->sector of struct
- *    request.
