This patch adds read balancing. The round-robin method is the first

My first thought in looking over this is that it ought to share the
existing
dm-round-robin module used by multipath (which is already more
flexible than
this as paths can be weighted). It looks fairly straightforward to do
this.
(And we certainly shouldn't confuse people by having 'roundrobin' in
one
part of dm and 'round-robin' in another!)
When we implement more complex load balancing policies, there seems
little
point doing everything twice, once for multipath and once for
mirroring:-)
