* Rename it to cgroup_clear_dir() and make it take the pointer to the
  target cgroup instead of the the dentry.  This makes the function
  consistent with its counterpart - cgroup_populate_dir().

* Move cgroup_clear_directory() invocation from cgroup_d_remove_dir()
  to cgroup_remount() so that the function doesn't have to determine
  the cgroup pointer back from the dentry.  cgroup_d_remove_dir() now
  only deals with vfs, which is slightly cleaner.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional differences.

 "Add a device-mapper target called dm-switch to provide a multipath

Pull core block IO updates from Jens Axboe:
 "Here are the core IO block bits for 3.11. It contains:

   - A tweak to the reserved tag logic from Jan, for weirdo devices with
     just 3 free tags.  But for those it improves things substantially

   - Periodic writeback fix from Jan.  Marked for stable as well.

   - Fix for a race condition in IO scheduler switching from Jianpeng.

   - The hierarchical blk-cgroup support from Tejun.  This is the grunt
     of the series.

  flying out tomorrow.  Hence I will be awal the remainder of this week,

   - Make virtual LUN=0 a NULLIO device, and skip allocation of NULLIO

 "The majority of the changes here are cleanups for the large changes
  that were added to 3.10, which includes several bug fixes that have
  been marked for stable.

  As for new features, there were a few, but nothing to write to LWN
  about.  These include:

  New function trigger called "dump" and "cpudump" that will cause
  ftrace to dump its buffer to the console when the function is called.
  The difference between "dump" and "cpudump" is that "dump" will dump
  the entire contents of the ftrace buffer, where as "cpudump" will only
  dump the contents of the ftrace buffer for the CPU that called the
  function.

  Another small enhancement is a new sysctl switch called
  "traceoff_on_warning" which, when enabled, will disable tracing if any
  WARN_ON() is triggered.  This is useful if you want to debug what
  caused a warning and do not want to risk losing your trace data by the
  ring buffer overwriting the data before you can disable it.  There's
  also a kernel command line option that will make this enabled at boot
  up called the same thing"

This reverts commit d2aae847.

It is completely and utterly broken.  Module install should not build
any files, and adding broken dependencies to "help" it build files is
complete and utter sh*t.

The kernel should not be built by root, and "make install" and "make
module_install" (that for obvious reasons need to be run as root)
absolutely must not build any files.  They should only ever copy the
already-built files over.

So having dependencies for the install targets is wrong, wrong, wrong.

If you try to install a kernel without building it first, you *should*
get errors. The build system shouldn't try to help root build the files.

zswap is a thin backend for frontswap that takes pages that are in the
process of being swapped out and attempts to compress them and store
them in a RAM-based memory pool.  This can result in a significant I/O
reduction on the swap device and, in the case where decompressing from
RAM is faster than reading from the swap device, can also improve
workload performance.

It also has support for evicting swap pages that are currently
compressed in zswap to the swap device on an LRU(ish) basis.  This
functionality makes zswap a true cache in that, once the cache is full,
the oldest pages can be moved out of zswap to the swap device so newer
pages can be compressed and stored in zswap.

This patch adds the zswap driver to mm/

zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages.  It
is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical page.
While this design limits storage density, it has simple and
deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher
density approach when reclaim will be used.

zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs
in a single memory page called a "zbud page".  The first buddy is "left
justifed" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is
"right justified" at the end of the zbud page.  The benefit is that if
either buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever
slack space that existed between the buddies, results in the largest
possible free region within the zbud page.

zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density.  The ratio of
zpages to zbud pages can not be less than 1.  This ensures that zbud can
never "do harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the
uncompressed zpages would have used on their own.

This implementation is a rewrite of the zbud allocator internally used
by zcache in the driver/staging tree.  The rewrite was necessary to
remove some of the zcache specific elements that were ingrained
throughout and provide a generic allocation interface that can later be
used by zsmalloc and others.

This patch adds zbud to mm/ for later use by zswap.

dm-switch is a new target that maps IO to underlying block devices
efficiently when there is a large number of fixed-sized address regions
but there is no simple pattern to allow for a compact mapping
representation such as dm-stripe.

Though we have developed this target for a specific storage device, Dell
EqualLogic, we have made an effort to keep it as general purpose as
possible in the hope that others may benefit.

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.

Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.

dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.

If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

Fix a boundary condition that caused failure for certain device sizes.

The problem is reported at
  http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/detail?id=160

For certain device sizes the number of hashes at a specific level was
calculated incorrectly.

It happens for example for a device with data and metadata block size 4096
that has 16385 blocks and algorithm sha256.

The user can test if he is affected by this bug by running the
"veritysetup verify" command and also by activating the dm-verity kernel
driver and reading the whole block device. If it passes without an error,
then the user is not affected.

The condition for the bug is:

Split the total number of data blocks (data_block_bits) into bit strings,
each string has hash_per_block_bits bits. hash_per_block_bits is
rounddown(log2(metadata_block_size/hash_digest_size)). Equivalently, you
can say that you convert data_blocks_bits to 2^hash_per_block_bits base.

If there some zero bit string below the most significant bit string and at
least one bit below this zero bit string is set, then the bug happens.

The same bug exists in the userspace veritysetup tool, so you must use
fixed veritysetup too if you want to use devices that are affected by
this boundary condition.
