Subject: [PATCH] dm writecache: optimize superblock write
Git-commit: dc8a01ae1dbd7bac98368da4d8f81632512429f5
Patch-mainline: v5.7-rc1
References: bsc#1175995,jsc#SLE-15608

If we write a superblock in writecache_flush, we don't need to set bit and
scan the bitmap for it - we can just write the superblock directly. Also,
we can set the flag REQ_FUA on the write bio, so that we don't need to
submit a flush bio afterwards.
