Flag for bypass if the IO is for read-ahead or background, unless the
read-ahead request is for metadata (eg, from gfs2).
        Bypass if:
                bio->bi_opf & (REQ_RAHEAD|REQ_BACKGROUND) &&
			!(bio->bi_opf & REQ_META))

        Writeback if:
                op_is_sync(bio->bi_opf) ||
			bio->bi_opf & (REQ_META|REQ_PRIO)
