loop-AES changes since previous release:
- Removed unnecessary memcpy from file backed unencrypted loops (2.4 and 2.5
kernels).
- Dropped loop thread O(1) scheduler nice from -20 to -9 (2.4 and 2.5
kernels). No change for kernels using old scheduler.
- Fixed genuine loop bug that always exported loop sector size as 512 bytes
regardless of sector size of underlying device (bug affected only 2.5
kernels because other kernel versions were fixed earlier). Fix was copied
from Adam J. Richter's loop fixes.
- Fixed one file-backed-loop-on-tmpfs bug (2.5 kernels only). Fix from Adam
J. Richter's loop fixes.
- Fixed default soft block size computation with non-zero loop offset (2.4
and 2.5 kernels).
- Merged two driver init time out-of-mem-handling bugfixes from
2.4.20-pre7-ac1 (2.4 and 2.5 kernels)
- loop.c-2.2.original updated with fixes from 2.2.22
- Added support for CONFIG_LBD (2.5 kernels)
- loop.c-2.5.original updated with fixes from 2.5.39
