Rename __clone_and_map_flush to __clone_and_map_empty_flush for added
clarity.

Reintroduce a BUG_ON() and add a few more helpful comments to the code
so that it is clear that all flushes are empty.

Cleanup __split_and_process_bio() so that an empty flush isn't processed
by a 'sector_count' focused while loop.

To clarify this further I'd reorder the checks:

		if ((bio->bi_rw & REQ_FLUSH) && bio->bi_size) {
			/*
			 * Preflush done, ...
			 */
		} else {
		}

no need for the is_flush anymore now that it's only used once.  Again,
I think avoiding negatives without a reason in if statement usually
makes the code a bit more clear.
