block: flush: fix IO hang in case of flood fua req

This patch fixes one issue reported by Kent, which can
be triggered in bcachefs over sata disk. Actually it
is a generic issue in block flush vs. blk-tag.

+	 *   and flush_data_end_io() is called
+	 * - the other rqs still can't go ahead if not updating
+	 *   q->in_flight[BLK_RW_ASYNC] here, meantime these rqs
+	 *   are held in flush data queue and make no progress of
