[PATCH 0/2] Add BLK_FEAT_READ_SYNCHRONOUS and SWP_READ_SYNCHRONOUS_IO

[Qun-Wei Lin <qun-wei.lin@mediatek.com>]

This patchset introduces 2 new feature flags, BLK_FEAT_READ_SYNCHRONOUS and
SWP_READ_SYNCHRONOUS_IO.

These changes are motivated by the need to better accommodate certain swap
devices that support synchronous read operations but asynchronous write
operations.

The existing BLK_FEAT_SYNCHRONOUS and SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO flags are not
sufficient for these devices, as they enforce synchronous behavior for both
read and write operations.

Patch 1:
- introduce BLK_FEAT_READ_SYNCHRONOUS

Patch 2:
- introduce SWP_READ_SYNCHRONOUS_IO

Qun-Wei Lin (2):
  block: add BLK_FEAT_READ_SYNCHRONOUS feature for synchronous read
  mm, swap: introduce SWP_READ_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
