Subject: [git pull] device-mapper patches for 2.6.38

Please pull from:

  master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-2.6-dm.git master

to get the following device-mapper fixes and enhancements for inclusion in
2.6.38.

Of particular note are the dm-crypt performance enhancements and the
start made in sharing code between md and dm (raid456).
 
Andi Kleen (1):
      dm crypt: scale to multiple cpus

Chandra Seetharaman (1):
      dm mpath: delay activate_path retry on SCSI_DH_RETRY

Dan Carpenter (1):
      dm log: use PTR_ERR value instead of ENOMEM

Jonathan Brassow (4):
      dm log userspace: trap all failed log construction errors
      dm log userspace: split flush queue
      dm log userspace: group clear and mark requests
      dm log userspace: add version number to comms

Kiyoshi Ueda (1):
      dm: remove superfluous irq disablement in dm_request_fn

Mike Snitzer (4):
      dm: dont take i_mutex to change device size
      dm mpath: disable blk_abort_queue
      dm raid1: support discard
      dm snapshot: avoid storing private suspended state

Mikulas Patocka (2):
      dm io: remove BIO_RW_SYNCIO flag from kcopyd
      dm kcopyd: delay unplugging

Milan Broz (8):
      dm: remove dm_mutex after bkl conversion
      dm crypt: set key size early
      dm crypt: simplify compatible table output
      dm crypt: use io thread for reads only if mempool exhausted
      dm crypt: add post iv call to iv generator
      dm crypt: add multi key capability
      dm crypt: add loop aes iv generator
      dm ioctl: suppress needless warning messages

NeilBrown (3):
      dm: introduce target callbacks and congestion callback
      dm: per target unplug callback support
      dm: raid456 basic support

Peter Jones (1):
      dm ioctl: allow rename to fill empty uuid

Tejun Heo (6):
      dm snapshot: remove unused dm_snapshot queued_bios_work
      dm: dont use flush_scheduled_work
      dm stripe: switch from local workqueue to system_wq
      dm: convert workqueues to alloc_ordered
      dm: use non reentrant workqueues if equivalent
      dm snapshot: persistent make metadata_wq multithreaded
