   - BFQ series (Paolo)

   - Save blk-mq cpu -&gt; hw queue mapping, removing a pointer indirection
     for the fast path (Jianchao)

   - cdrom registration race fix (Guenter)

   - MD pull from Song, two minor fixes.

   - Various documentation fixes (Marcos)

   - Multi-page bvec feature. This brings a lot of nice improvements

     without growing the bvec table size, and so on. (Ming)

Mark Syms has reported seeing tasks that are stuck waiting in
find_insert_glock.  It turns out that struct lm_lockname contains four padding
bytes on 64-bit architectures that function glock_waitqueue doesn't skip when
hashing the glock name.  As a result, we can end up waking up the wrong
waitqueue, and the waiting tasks may be stuck forever.

Fix that by using ht_parms.key_len instead of sizeof(struct lm_lockname) for
the key length.

When updating the inode information after a change in allocation,
convert the change into the same units as the inode's i_blocks count
before comparing it in an assertion.

Also, change the comparison so that it is still possible to set i_blocks
to zero by adding -i_blocks, something that was previously only possible
because of the difference in units.

<content type='text'>
This patch introduces one extra iterator variable to bio_for_each_segment_all(),
then we can allow bio_for_each_segment_all() to iterate over multi-page bvec.

Given it is just one mechannical &amp; simple change on all bio_for_each_segment_all()
users, this patch does tree-wide change in one single patch, so that we can
avoid to use a temporary helper for this conversion.

This reverts commit 2d29f6b96d8f80322ed2dd895bca590491c38d34.

It turns out that the fix can lead to a ~20 percent performance regression
in initial writes to the page cache according to iozone.  Let's revert this
for now to have more time for a proper fix.

<title>gfs: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions</title>

<id>2abbf9a4d262511999ac11b4ddc8521c9ee72b88</id>
<content type='text'>
When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value.  The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.

There is no need to save the dentries for the debugfs files, so drop
those variables to save a bit of space and make the code simpler.

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value.  The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.

There is no need to save the dentries for the debugfs files, so drop
those variables to save a bit of space and make the code simpler.
