[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm core: remove dead codes

Hi Alasdair,

This patch removes dead codes for the noflush suspend.
No functional change.

The dm_queue_flush(md, DM_WQ_FLUSH_ALL, NULL) in dm_suspend()
is never invoked because:
  - The 'goto flush_and_out' is same as 'goto out', because
    the 'goto flush_and_out' is called only when '!noflush'
  - If the 'r && noflush' is true, the interrupt check code above
    is invoked and 'goto out'

The DM_WQ_FLUSH_ALL type is used only in dm_suspend().
So no need any more.

Should be applied on top of 2.6.25-rc1.
Please review and apply.
