Linus Torvalds 311f71281f - Improve DM snapshot target's scalability by using finer grained
locking.  Requires some list_bl interface improvements.
 
 - Add ability for DM integrity to use a bitmap mode, that tracks regions
   where data and metadata are out of sync, instead of using a journal.
 
 - Improve DM thin provisioning target to not write metadata changes to
   disk if the thin-pool and associated thin devices are merely
   activated but not used.  This avoids metadata corruption due to
   concurrent activation of thin devices across different OS instances
   (e.g. split brain scenarios, which ultimately would be avoided if
   proper device filters were used -- but not having proper filtering has
   proven a very common configuration mistake)
 
 - Fix missing call to path selector type->end_io in DM multipath.  This
   fixes reported performance problems due to inaccurate path selector IO
   accounting causing an imbalance of IO (e.g. avoiding issuing IO to
   particular path due to it seemingly being heavily used).
 
 - Fix bug in DM cache metadata's loading of its discard bitset that
   could lead to all cache blocks being discarded if the very first cache
   block was discarded (thankfully in practice the first cache block is
   generally in use; be it FS superblock, partition table, disk label,
   etc).
 
 - Add testing-only DM dust target which simulates a device that has
   failing sectors and/or read failures.
 
 - Fix a DM init error path reference count hang that caused boot hangs
   if user supplied malformed input on kernel commandline.
 
 - Fix a couple issues with DM crypt target's logging being overly
   verbose or lacking context.
 
 - Various other small fixes to DM init, DM multipath, DM zoned, and DM
   crypt.
