Changes
-------
Revision 13:
Give each device its own io mempool to avoid a potential
deadlock with stacked devices. [HM + EJT]
Revision 14:
Let the persistent/non persistent arg to the snapshot constructor
be case insensitive. [Heinz Mauelshagen]
Revision 15:
queue_io() was checking the DMF_SUSPENDED flag rather than the new
DMF_BLOCK_IO flag. This meant suspend could deadlock under load.
Revision 16:
dm_suspend(): Stop holding the read lock around the while loop that
waits for pending io to complete.
Revision 17:
Add a run_task_queue(&tq_disk) to encourage pending io to flush
when we're doing a dm_suspend().
