Subject: [GIT PULL] block changes for 2.6.28

Hi Linus,

This is the bulk of the block layer changes for 2.6.28. As other git
trees are based on this (like SCSI), it would be good if you could merge
it sooner rather than later.

Please pull from:

        git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block.git for-2.6.28
