Subject: [PULL REQUEST] few more md patches now that dependencies are
 present.


Is it still Wednesday?

As promised, here are the last bits for md.  Primarily performance
improvements made possible the new plugging code.  These can make a
significant difference on SDD's and a noticeable difference on spinning rust.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

  md/dm-raid: DM_RAID should select MD_RAID10 (2012-08-02 08:35:43 +1000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Additional md update for 3.6

This contains a few patches that depend on
plugging changes in the block layer so needs to wait
for those.
It also contains a Kconfig fix for the new RAID10 support
in dm-raid.

----------------------------------------------------------------

      md/raid1: submit IO from originating thread instead of md thread.

      raid5: raid5d handle stripe in batch way
