Subject: [GIT PULL] Block IO core bit for 3.2
Date: Fri, 04 Nov 2011 21:01:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EB44488.4040300@kernel.dk> (raw)

Hi Linus,

This is the core bits pull request for 3.2. Executive summary:

- Some cleanups and refactoring of the __make_request() interface from
  Christoph. We used to return 0/1 to control remap or queue behaviour,
  but drivers often got that API wrong and used it for 0/-Exxx instead.

- Fix a bug in loop aops write handling.

- Two stable bug fixes for the block flush logic.

- A cleanup and fixup patchset from Tejun, attempting to really fix our
  reference counting problems.

- Various little bug fixes, comments, cleansup.

Please pull!
