[PATCH] fix queue stalling while barrier sequencing



If ordered tag isn't supported, request ordering for barrier
sequencing is performed by queue draining, which basically hangs the
request queue until elv_completed_request() reports completion of all
previous fs requests.

The condition check in elv_completed_request() was only performed for
fs requests.  If a special request is queued between the last
to-be-drained request and the barrier sequence, draining is never
completed and the queue is stalled forever.

This patch moves the end-of-draining condition check such that it's
performed for all requests.
