    Merge tag 'for-4.12/dm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
    
    Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer:
    
     - DM cache metadata fixes to short-circuit operations that require the
       metadata not be in 'fail_io' mode. Otherwise crashes are possible.
    
     - a DM cache fix to address the inability to adapt to continuous IO
       that happened to also reflect a changing working set (which required
       old blocks be demoted before the new working set could be promoted)
    
     - a DM cache smq policy cleanup that fell out from reviewing the above
    
     - fix the Kconfig help text for CONFIG_DM_INTEGRITY

      dm cache metadata: fail operations if fail_io mode has been established
      dm integrity: improve the Kconfig help text for DM_INTEGRITY
      dm cache policy smq: cleanup free_target_met() and clean_target_met()
      dm cache policy smq: allow demotions to happen even during continuous IO
