Linus Torvalds 775a2e29c3 . various fixes and improvements to request-based DM and DM multipath
. some locking improvements in DM bufio
 
 . add Kconfig option to disable the DM block manager's extra locking
   which mainly serves as a developer tool
 
 . a few bug fixes to DM's persistent-data
 
 . a couple changes to prepare for multipage biovec support in the block
   layer
 
 . various improvements and cleanups in the DM core, DM cache, DM raid
   and DM crypt
 
 . add ability to have DM crypt use keys from the kernel key retention
   service
 
 . add a new "error_writes" feature to the DM flakey target, reads are
   left unchanged in this mode
