full blk-mq support to request-based DM.
- disabled by default but user can opt-in with CONFIG_DM_MQ_DEFAULT
- depends on some blk-mq changes from Jens' for-4.1/core branch so
that explains why this pull is built on linux-block.git
- Update DM to use name_to_dev_t() rather than open-coding a less
capable device parser.
- includes a couple small improvements to name_to_dev_t() that offer
stricter constraints that DM's code provided.
- Improvements to the dm-cache "mq" cache replacement policy.
- A DM crypt crypt_ctr() error path fix and an async crypto deadlock fix.
- A small efficiency improvement for DM crypt decryption by leveraging
immutable biovecs.
- Add error handling modes for corrupted blocks to DM verity.
- A new "log-writes" DM target from Josef Bacik that is meant for
file system developers to test file system integrity at particular
points in the life of a file system.
- A few DM log userspace cleanups and fixes.
- A few Documentation fixes (for thin, cache, crypt and switch).
