Subject: [PATCH 00/12] lightnvm: 4.11 patches

Hi Jens,

Here are the patches for the 4.11 window. The following changes have
been made:

 - New ioctls for vectored I/Os. Now liblightnvm is fully supported and
   applications can begin to use the liblightnvm API to integrate with
   Open-Channel SSDs.

 - Merging of the general media manager with the lightnvm core. This
   removes the need to instantiate the media manager before initializing
   targets, and also eliminates the persistent metadata that was used
   by gennvm.

 - Interface cleanups for target implementations. Enables pblk to be
   simplified.

 - Fix memory leak on target creation failure.

 - Clean up end_io() path so that it follows the same approach as bio
   structures to end ios.

Please pick up.

-Matias
