Upstream commit: 12bcb3f7d4371f74bd25372e98e0d2da978e82b2
Recent event tracing during a debugging session showed that flags
that define the IO type for a buffer are leaking into the flags on
the buffer incorrectly. Fix the flag exclusion mask in
xfs_buf_alloc() to avoid problems that may be caused by such
leakage.
