Linus Torvalds fcc95f0640 The main items are:
- support for asynchronous create and unlink (Jeff Layton).  Creates
   and unlinks are satisfied locally, without waiting for a reply from
   the MDS, provided the client has been granted appropriate caps (new
   in v15.y.z ("Octopus") release).  This can be a big help for metadata
   heavy workloads such as tar and rsync.  Opt-in with the new nowsync
   mount option.
 
 - multiple blk-mq queues for rbd (Hannes Reinecke and myself).  When
   the driver was converted to blk-mq, we settled on a single blk-mq
   queue because of a global lock in libceph and some other technical
   debt.  These have since been addressed, so allocate a queue per CPU
   to enhance parallelism.
 
 - don't hold onto caps that aren't actually needed (Zheng Yan).  This
   has been our long-standing behavior, but it causes issues with some
   active/standby applications (synchronous I/O, stalls if the standby
   goes down, etc).
 
 - .snap directory timestamps consistent with ceph-fuse (Luis Henriques)
