Hi Sunad,

The mainline going forward with kernel 3.19 will be blk-mq, and the
linux-nvme tree will be there as well on the next upstream merge.

I have my own repo for maintaining the bio-based version since a lot of
OS vendors are using older kernels in their minor release cycles. I can
push this out to a public repo on git.infradead.org if there's interest.

Thanks,
Keith
