Subject: [GIT PULL] Block updates for 3.17-rc

Hi Linus,

A small collection of fixes for the current rc series. It contains:

- Two small blk-mq patches from Rob Elliott, cleaning up error case at
  init time.

- A fix from Ming Lei, fixing SG merging for blk-mq where
  QUEUE_FLAG_SG_NO_MERGE is the default.

- A dev_t minor lifetime fix from Keith, fixing an issue where a minor
  might be reused before all references to it were gone.

- Fix from Alan Stern where an unbalanced queue bypass caused SCSI some
  headaches when it does a series of add/del on devices without fully
  registrering the queue.

- A fix from me for improving the scaling of tag depth in blk-mq if we
  are short on memory.

Please pull!
