Subject: [PATCH 16/18] dm kcopyd: support copy offload

This patch adds copy offload support to dm-kcopyd. If copy offload fails,
copying is performed using dm-io, just like before.

There is a module parameter "copy_offload" that can be set to enable or
disable this feature. It can be used to test performance of copy offload.
