Merge branch 'for-2.6.37/barrier' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block
* 'for-2.6.37/barrier' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block: (46 commits) xen-blkfront: disable barrier/flush write support Added blk-lib.c and blk-barrier.c was renamed to blk-flush.c block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT aic7xxx_old: removed unused 'req' variable block: remove the BH_Eopnotsupp flag block: remove the BLKDEV_IFL_BARRIER flag block: remove the WRITE_BARRIER flag swap: do not send discards as barriers fat: do not send discards as barriers ext4: do not send discards as barriers jbd2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage jbd2: Modify ASYNC_COMMIT code to not rely on queue draining on barrier jbd: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage nilfs2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage reiserfs: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage gfs2: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage btrfs: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage xfs: replace barriers with explicit flush / FUA usage block: pass gfp_mask and flags to sb_issue_discard dm: convey that all flushes are processed as empty ...
