users (e.g. kvm guests) that issued ioctls when a multipath device had
   no available paths.

a3d939ae7b dm: convert ffs to __ffs
ffs counts bit starting with 1 (for the least significant bit), __ffs
counts bits starting with 0. This patch changes various occurrences of ffs
to __ffs and removes subtraction of 1 from the result.

Note that __ffs (unlike ffs) is not defined when called with zero
argument, but it is not called with zero argument in any of these cases.

b0d3cc011e dm snapshot: add new persistent store option to support overflow
Commit 76c44f6d80 introduced the possibly for "Overflow" to be reported
by the snapshot device's status.  Older userspace (e.g. lvm2) does not
handle the "Overflow" status response.

Fix this incompatibility by requiring newer userspace code, that can
cope with "Overflow", request the persistent store with overflow support
by using "PO" (Persistent with Overflow) for the snapshot store type.

Don't allow chunk size smaller than either origin or snapshot logical
sector size. Reading or writing data not aligned to sector size is not
allowed and causes immediate errors.

This requires us to open the origin before initialising the
exception store and to export dm_snap_origin.

fc56f6fbcc dm snapshot: move cow ref from exception store to snap core
Store the reference to the snapshot cow device in the core snapshot
code instead of each exception store.  It can be accessed through the

ae0b7448e9 dm snapshot: fix on disk chunk size validation
Fix some problems seen in the chunk size processing when activating a
pre-existing snapshot.

For a new snapshot, the chunk size can either be supplied by the creator
or a default value can be used.  For an existing snapshot, the
chunk size in the snapshot header on disk should always be used.

If someone attempts to load an existing snapshot and has the 'default
chunk size' option set, the kernel uses its default value even when it
is incorrect for the snapshot being loaded.  This patch ensures the
correct on-disk value is always used.

Secondly, when the code does use the chunk size stored on the disk it is
prudent to revalidate it, so the code can exit cleanly if it got
corrupted as happened in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506 .

e1defc4ff0 block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size
Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

c51c275249 [PATCH] dm snapshot: unify chunk_size
Persistent snapshots currently store a private copy of the chunk size.
Userspace also supplies the chunk size when loading a snapshot.  Ensure
consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place instead of two.

Currently the two sizes will differ if the chunk size supplied by userspace
does not match the chunk size an existing snapshot actually uses.  Amongst
other problems, this causes an incorrect 'percentage full' to be reported.

The patch ensures consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place,
removing it from struct pstore.  Some initialisation is delayed until the
correct chunk_size is known.  If read_header() discovers that the wrong chunk
size was supplied, the 'area' buffer (which the header already got read into)
is reinitialised to the correct size.

[akpm: too late for 2.6.17 - suitable for 2.6.17.x after it has settled]

f9101210e7 [PATCH] vfree and kfree cleanup in drivers/
This patch does a full cleanup of 'NULL checks before vfree', and a partial
cleanup of calls to kfree for all of drivers/ - the kfree bit is partial in
that I only did the files that also had vfree calls in them.  The patch
also gets rid of some redundant (void *) casts of pointers being passed to
[vk]free, and a some tiny whitespace corrections also crept in.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
