Hi Alasdair,
this is a series of 13 patches, which move dm-{io,log}.h and kcopyd.h to
include/linux, renaming the later to dm-kcopyd.h, to better allow for their
interfaces to be sharable beyond the scope of Device-Mapper.
Structure and function identifiers (e.g. io_region -> dm_io_region)
get a "dm_", macros a "DM_" prefix respectively.
Existing callers are adjusted to use the new structure/function/macro names.
The Makefile now generates dm-{io,kcopyd,log} as kmods.
This potentially needs a future change in case of a static kernel *and*
more callers sharing the dm-{io,kcopyd,log} modules.
dm_disk(), which belongs to our external interface since long time, is
exported now to allow for future callers to actually be able to access it.
If acceptable, please apply.
