Merge tag 'dm-3.15-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper changes from Mike Snitzer:
- Fix dm-cache corruption caused by discard_block_size > cache_block_size
- Fix a lock-inversion detected by LOCKDEP in dm-cache
- Fix a dangling bio bug in the dm-thinp target's process_deferred_bios
error path
- Fix corruption due to non-atomic transaction commit which allowed a
metadata superblock to be written before all other metadata was
successfully written -- this is common to all targets that use the
persistent-data library's transaction manager (dm-thinp, dm-cache and
dm-era).
- Various small cleanups in the DM core
- Add the dm-era target which is useful for keeping track of which
blocks were written within a user defined period of time called an
'era'. Use cases include tracking changed blocks for backup
software, and partially invalidating the contents of a cache to
restore cache coherency after rolling back a vendor snapshot.
- Improve the on-disk layout of multithreaded writes to the
dm-thin-pool by splitting the pool's deferred bio list to be a
per-thin device list and then sorting that list using an rb_tree.
The subsequent read throughput of the data written via multiple
threads improved by ~70%.
- Simplify the multipath target's handling of queuing IO by pushing
requests back to the request queue rather than queueing the IO
internally.
