Please pull from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-dm tags/dm-3.8-fixes
to get the following device-mapper updates:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Miscellaneous device-mapper fixes, cleanups and performance improvements.
Of particular note:
- Disable broken WRITE SAME support in all targets except linear and striped.
Use it when kcopyd is zeroing blocks.
- Remove several mempools from targets by moving the data into the bio's new
front_pad area(which dm calls 'per_bio_data').
- Fix a race in thin provisioning if discards are misused.
- Prevent userspace from interfering with the ioctl parameters and
use kmalloc for the data buffer if it's small instead of vmalloc.
- Throttle some annoying error messages when I/O fails.
----------------------------------------------------------------
