[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 06/11] virtio-blk: disable write cache if not negotiated

[Kevin Wolf]

From: Paolo Bonzini <address@hidden>

If the guest does not support flushes, we should run in writethrough mode.
The setting is temporary until the next reset, so that for example the
BIOS will run in writethrough mode while Linux will run with a writeback
cache.
