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. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: block: replace __getblk_slow misfix by grow_dev_page fix drbd: Write all pages of the bitmap after an online resize drbd: Finish requests that completed while IO was frozen drbd: fix drbd wire compatibility for empty flushes Documentation: update tunable options in block/cfq-iosched.txt Documentation: update tunable options in block/cfq-iosched.txt Documentation: update missing index files in block/00-INDEX block: move down direct IO plugging block: remove plugging at buffered write time block: disable discard request merge temporarily bio: Fix potential memory leak in bio_find_or_create_slab() block: Don't use static to define "void *p" in show_partition_start() block: Add blk_bio_map_sg() helper block: Introduce __blk_segment_map_sg() helper fs/block-dev.c:fix performance regression in O_DIRECT writes to md block devices block: split discard into aligned requests block: reorganize rounding of max_discard_sectors
