[dm-devel] [PATCH 19/32] block: add helper to get data dir from op

[mchristi at redhat.com]

From: Mike Christie <mchristi at redhat.com>

In later patches the op will no longer be a bitmap, so we will
not have REQ_WRITE set for all non reads like discard, flush,
and write same. Drivers will still want to treat them as writes
for accounting reasons, so this patch adds a helper to translate
a op to a data direction.
