[patch] brd: support barriers

[Nick Piggin]

Hi Jens,
Do you have a tree I can send this though? Is this the right way to
do what I want?

brd is always ordered (not that it matters, as it is defined not to
survive when the system goes down). So tell the block layer it is
ordered, which might be of help with testing filesystems.
