Subject: [GIT PULL] block/io bits for 2.6.35-rc

Hi Linus,

Some important fixes for 2.6.35:

- A set of patches fixing the WB_SYNC_NONE writeback from Christoph. So
  we should finally have both functional and working WB_SYNC_NONE from
  umount context.

- Two fixes for the pipe resizing and fcntl() interface, where the
  last conversion to a byte API introduced a dumb bug.

- Fix for the module count problem from Nick.

Please pull.
