commit 6d2a78e783416ba99e36beb1d4395b785b34e867 avoids dm integrity support

[Kiyoshi Ueda <k-ueda@ct.jp.nec.com>]

Hi Martin, Jens, Alasdair,

I found this commit (6d2a78e783416ba99e36beb1d4395b785b34e867) in the recent
Linus's git makes every block device share single mempool for integrity cloning.
I think that it avoids integrity support for dm, because having only one mempool
in the kernel may cause a deadlock due to no memory while a bio goes down to
a device stack.

So dm needs to prepare own mempool for each device and pass it to
bio_integrity_clone() instead of the shared one.


commit 6d2a78e783416ba99e36beb1d4395b785b34e867
Author: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Date:   Tue Mar 10 08:27:39 2009 +0100

    block: add private bio_set for bio integrity allocations
    
    The integrity bio allocation needs its own bio_set to avoid violating
    the mempool allocation rules and risking deadlocks.
