I looked over it, although I didn't dig into the details of all driver
patches, and I like what I see.  As said in the previous mail I'd love
to see the patches to shrink struct bio again, too.

I don't see too much conflicts with blk-multiqueue as that is operating
at the request layer.  Blk-multiqueue defintively is a higher priority
for me, but as it already looks fairly good I have no idea what we're
blocked on for it anyway.
