The "flags" value passed to blk_mq_alloc_request() is not the same as the
values for rq_flags, though.

I guess you could add a new allocation flag, maybe called something like
BLK_MQ_REQ_QUIET to tell the block layer to set RQF_QUIET. That is similiar to
how BLK_MQ_REQ_PM is used for RQF_PM, but I'm not sure we want to add another
'if' check in the fast path.
