block: remove REQ_HARDBARRIER

Browse Source 
REQ_HARDBARRIER is dead now, so remove the leftovers.  What's left
at this point is:

 - various checks inside the block layer.
 - sanity checks in bio based drivers.
 - now unused bio_empty_barrier helper.
 - Xen blockfront use of BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER - it's dead for a while,
   but Xen really needs to sort out it's barrier situaton.
 - setting of ordered tags in uas - dead code copied from old scsi
   drivers.
 - scsi different retry for barriers - it's dead and should have been
   removed when flushes were converted to FS requests.
 - blktrace handling of barriers - removed.  Someone who knows blktrace
   better should add support for REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA, though.
