Subject: [patch 145/149] dm snapshot: simplify sector_to_chunk expression

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@...hat.com>

commit 102c6ddb1d081a6a1fede38c43a42c9811313ec7 upstream.

Removed unnecessary 'and' masking: The right shift discards the lower
bits so there is no need to clear them.

(A later patch needs this change to support a 32-bit chunk_mask.)
