  dm cache: handle kmalloc failure allocating background_tracker struct (2017-05-17 09:44:53 -0400)

Please pull, thanks.
Mike

----------------------------------------------------------------
- A couple DM thin provisioning fixes

- A few request-based DM and DM multipath fixes for issues that were
  made when merging Christoph's changes with Bart's changes for 4.12

- A DM bufio unsigned overflow fix

- A couple pure fixes for the DM cache target.

- Various very small tweaks to the DM cache target that enable
  considerable speed improvements in the face of continuous IO.  Given
  that the cache target was significantly reworked for 4.12 I see no
  reason to sit on these advances until 4.13 considering the favorable
  results associated with such minimalist tweaks.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Christoph Hellwig (3):
      dm rq: add a missing break to map_request
      dm mpath: don't return -EIO from dm_report_EIO
      dm mpath: multipath_clone_and_map must not return -EIO

Colin Ian King (1):
      dm cache: handle kmalloc failure allocating background_tracker struct

Joe Thornber (10):
      dm cache: fix incorrect 'idle_time' reset in IO tracker
      dm cache policy smq: only demote entries in bottom half of the clean multiqueue
      dm cache policy smq: be more aggressive about triggering a writeback
      dm cache policy smq: put newly promoted entries at the top of the multiqueue
      dm cache policy smq: stop preemptively demoting blocks
      dm cache: track all IO to the cache rather than just the origin device's IO
      dm cache: simplify the IDLE vs BUSY state calculation
      dm cache policy smq: don't do any writebacks unless IDLE
      dm thin metadata: call precommit before saving the roots
      dm space map disk: fix some book keeping in the disk space map

Mikulas Patocka (1):
      dm bufio: make the parameter "retain_bytes" unsigned long
