Merge tag 'dm-4.11-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - Fix dm-raid transient device failure processing and other smaller tweaks. - Add journal support to the DM raid target to close the 'write hole' on raid 4/5/6. - Fix dm-cache corruption, due to rounding bug, when cache exceeds 2TB. - Add 'metadata2' feature to dm-cache to separate the dirty bitset out from other cache metadata. This improves speed of shutting down a large cache device (which implies writing out dirty bits). - Fix a memory leak during dm-stats data structure destruction. - Fix a DM multipath round-robin path selector performance regression that was caused by less precise balancing across all paths. - Lastly, introduce a DM core fix for a long-standing DM snapshot deadlock that is rooted in the complexity of the device stack used in conjunction with block core maintaining bios on current->bio_list to manage recursion in generic_make_request(). A more comprehensive fix to block core (and its hook in the cpu scheduler) would be wonderful but this DM-specific fix is pragmatic considering how difficult it has been to make progress on a generic fix. * tag 'dm-4.11-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (22 commits) dm: flush queued bios when process blocks to avoid deadlock dm round robin: revert "use percpu 'repeat_count' and 'current_path'" dm stats: fix a leaked s->histogram_boundaries array dm space map metadata: constify dm_space_map structures dm cache metadata: use cursor api in blocks_are_clean_separate_dirty() dm persistent data: add cursor skip functions to the cursor APIs dm cache metadata: use dm_bitset_new() to create the dirty bitset in format 2 dm bitset: add dm_bitset_new() dm cache metadata: name the cache block that couldn't be loaded dm cache metadata: add "metadata2" feature dm cache metadata: use bitset cursor api to load discard bitset dm bitset: introduce cursor api dm btree: use GFP_NOFS in dm_btree_del() dm space map common: memcpy the disk root to ensure it's arch aligned dm block manager: add unlikely() annotations on dm_bufio error paths dm cache: fix corruption seen when using cache > 2TB dm raid: cleanup awkward branching in raid_message() option processing dm raid: use mddev rather than rdev->mddev dm raid: use read_disk_sb() throughout dm raid: add raid4/5/6 journaling support ...
