block: use flags instead of bit fields for blkdev_dio
This generates a lot better code for me, and bumps performance from 7650K IOPS to 7750K IOPS. Looking at profiles for the run and running perf diff, it confirms that we're now sending a lot less time there: 6.38% -2.80% [kernel.vmlinux] [k] blkdev_direct_IO Taking it from the 2nd most cycle consumer to only the 9th most at 3.35% of the CPU time.
