Unfortunately I think you went too far with all these different small
files, I was hoping to see 2 or 3 .c files and a couple .h files.

Maybe fold all the daemon code into a 1 .c and 1 .h ?

The core of the writeboost target in dm-writeboost-target.c ?

And fold all the other data structures into a 1 .c and 1 .h ?

When folding these files together feel free to use dividers in the code
like dm-thin.c and dm-cache-target.c do, e.g.:
