Merge tag 'dm-3.12-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm

Pull device-mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
 "Add the ability to collect I/O statistics on user-defined regions of a
  device-mapper device.  This dm-stats code required the reintroduction
  of a div64_u64_rem() helper, but as a separate method that doesn't
  slow down div64_u64() -- especially on 32-bit systems.

  Allow the error target to replace request-based DM devices (e.g.
  multipath) in addition to bio-based DM devices.

  Various other small code fixes and improvements to thin-provisioning,
  DM cache and the DM ioctl interface"

 Fixed block size
 ----------------
 
 The origin is divided up into blocks of a fixed size.  This block size
 is configurable when you first create the cache.  Typically we've been

 Having a fixed block size simplifies the target a lot.  But it is
 something of a compromise.  For instance, a small part of a block may be
