Sorry, I did do some specific searching on the mailing list and a quick
review of recent traffic, don't mean to make you guys rehash stuff.

3.10.16 was just released this week, does that contain backports for all
known serious issues and would be considered suitable for production
deployment?

I've seen references to raid using lvm (as opposed to lvm over md raid), but
it's never really been clear to me whether that is considered an alternative
to md raid, or a replacement, or whether it's better to do raid within lvm
rather than layering lvm on top of md raid. At this point, I'm considerably
more familiar with md raid so I've just been sticking with that.

Thanks much.
