Hi Christoph,

The concept is similar with DISCARD request except no-wait for request complete

 #define REQ_DISCARD            (1 << __REQ_DISCARD)
+#define REQ_TUNE               (1 << __REQ_TUNE)

As it's hard to detect the idle time at device level, user send the
tune request to device when idle.

Thank you,
Kyungmin Park
