* dm cache: add mq policyJoe Thornber2013-03-011-0/+72
A cache policy that uses a multiqueue ordered by recent hit count to select which blocks should be promoted and demoted. This is meant to be a general purpose policy. It prioritises reads over writes. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
