Subject: Updated btrfs/crypto snappy interface ready for merging

Here's a slightly updated version of the BTRFS snappy interface.
snappy is a faster compression algorithm that provides similar
compression as LZO, but generally better performance.

This version has:

- Ported to latest tree
- Extensive testing and benchmarking (in its 3.0 based incarnation)
- A few cleanups
- Adds a minor performance improvement

Should be ready for pulling into the btrfs tree now.
The crypto parts have been acked by Herbert.

The following changes since commit 2485a4b610171f4e1c4ab0d053569747795c1bbe:

  Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input (2012-01-12 12:40:41 -0800)
