Subject: [PATCH 3.2 105/140] dm thin metadata: introduce THIN_MAX_CONCURRENT_LOCKS

3.2.100-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Joe Thornber <ejt@...hat.com>

commit 8c971178a788c70e8d6db5c3a813de1a1f54e5b7 upstream.

Introduce THIN_MAX_CONCURRENT_LOCKS into dm-thin-metadata to
give a name to an otherwise "magic" number.
