[ Upstream commit 43c9835b144c7ce29efe142d662529662a9eb376 ]
Currently the write_cache attribute allows enabling the QUEUE_FLAG_WC flag on devices that never claimed the capability.
Fix that by adding a QUEUE_FLAG_HW_WC flag that is set by blk_queue_write_cache and guards re-enabling the cache through sysfs.
Note that any rescan that calls blk_queue_write_cache will still re-enable the write cache as in the current code.
