    block: ignore flush requests when storage is clean
has introduced a regression.

There is a problem that it is still possible for 2 requests to execute
in non sequential fashion and sometimes this results in a deadlock
when bdrv_drain_one/all are called for BDS with such stalled requests.

1. Current flushed_gen and flush_started_gen is 1.
2. Request 1 enters bdrv_co_flush to with write_gen 1 (i.e. the same
   as flushed_gen). It gets past flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and
   sets flush_started_gen to 1 (again, the same it was before).
3. Request 1 yields somewhere before exiting bdrv_co_flush
4. Request 2 enters bdrv_co_flush with write_gen 2. It gets past
   flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and sets flush_started_gen to 2.
5. Request 2 runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 2
6. Request 1 is resumed, runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 1.
   However flush_started_gen is now 2.

From here on out flushed_gen is always != to flush_started_gen and all
further requests will wait on flush_queue. This change replaces
flush_started_gen with an explicitly tracked active flush request.
