Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block-related fixes from Jens Axboe:

 - Improvements to the buffered and direct write IO plugging from
   Fengguang.

 - Abstract out the mapping of a bio in a request, and use that to
   provide a blk_bio_map_sg() helper.  Useful for mapping just a bio
   instead of a full request.

 - Regression fix from Hugh, fixing up a patch that went into the
   previous release cycle (and marked stable, too) attempting to prevent
   a loop in __getblk_slow().

 - Updates to discard requests, fixing up the sizing and how we align
   them.  Also a change to disallow merging of discard requests, since
   that doesn't really work properly yet.

 - A few drbd fixes.

 - Documentation updates.
