Linus Torvalds 9903883f1d Add a device-mapper target called dm-switch to provide a multipath
framework for storage arrays that dynamically reconfigure their
 preferred paths for different device regions.
 
 Fix a bug in the verity target that prevented its use with some
 specific sizes of devices.
 
 Improve some locking mechanisms in the device-mapper core and bufio.
 
 Add Mike Snitzer as a device-mapper maintainer.
 
 A few more clean-ups and fixes.
