Hi,

I'm attaching the two patches. I tested these on RHEL5, but I don't
think there are major changes in newer versions, either.

If that's the only problem, I can test it on latest linux-2.6.git.

Any feedback is welcome. :)

Thanks,

Miklos

Subject: [PATCH] dm-mirror: allow setting ios count to 0

Always read from the default_mirror in that case. This can help in case
the default_mirror is way faster than the other data leg.
