This is two simple target fixes and one discard related I/O starvation problem in sd. The discard problem occurs because the discard page doesn't have a mempool backing so if the allocation fails due to memory pressure, we then lose the forward progress we require if the writeout is on the same device. The fix is to back it with a mempool. Signed-off-by: James E.J.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
