[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 00/15] nbd: efficient write zeroes

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

v5 was here, but missed 2.7 freeze:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-07/msg04053.html

Since then, I've rebased the series, and the bulk of the changes
were to use consistent NBDFoo CamelCase naming, as well as to
improve the commit messages for questions raised on v5.
