Hi Alasdair,
Why have you just rebased the device-mapper series
(http://people.redhat.com/agk/patches/linux/editing/)? You have
just invalidated your testing and made it likely that Linus will blast
you if you ask him to pull your patches. Your whole series was already
based after v3.10 (i.e. released or rebased after the merge window
opened), so why move it again?

Cheers,

I was confirming there weren't any unexpected conflicts or other issues to
deal with from a point after the block tree went in before generating
the pull request.

On the contrary, it is part of my testing.

I usually base it either on the actual final release, v3.10 in this
case, or, if there are non-trivial conflicts, a suitable commit from a
point after the inclusion of the tree (normally block) leading to the
conflict.
