Hi Linus,

Distilled down version of bug fixes for 3.7. The patches have been well
tested. If you notice that commit dates are from today, it's because I
pulled less important bits out and shuffled them into the 3.8 mix. Apart
from that, no changes, base still the same.

It contains:

- Fix for aoe, don't run request_fn while it's plugged.

- Fix for a regression in floppy since 3.6, which causes
  problems if no floppy is found.

- Stable fix for blk_exec(), don't touch a request after it
  has been sent to the scheduler (and the device as well).

- Five fixes for various nasties in mtip32xx.

Please pull.
