Merge branch 'for-3.20/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block driver changes from Jens Axboe:
"This contains:
- The 4k/partition fixes for brd from Boaz/Matthew.
- A few xen front/back block fixes from David Vrabel and Roger Pau
Monne.
- Floppy changes from Takashi, cleaning the device file creation.
- Switching libata to use the new blk-mq tagging policy, removing
code (and a suboptimal implementation) from libata. This will
throw you a merge conflict, since a bug in the original libata
tagging code was fixed since this code was branched. Trivial.
From Shaohua.
- Conversion of loop to blk-mq, from Ming Lei.
- Cleanup of the io_schedule() handling in bsg from Peter Zijlstra.
He claims it improves on unreadable code, which will cost him a
beer.
- Maintainer update or NDB, now handled by Markus Pargmann.
- NVMe:
- Optimization from me that avoids a kmalloc/kfree per IO for
smaller (<= 8KB) IO. This cuts about 1% of high IOPS CPU
overhead.
- Removal of (now) dead RCU code, a relic from before NVMe was
converted to blk-mq"
