dm snapshot: fix hung bios when copy error occurs (2016-01-08 20:03:05 -0500)
Please pull, thanks!

----------------------------------------------------------------
- The most significant set of changes this cycle is the Forward Error
Correction (FEC) support that has been added to the DM verity target.
Google uses DM verity on all Android devices and it is believed that
this FEC support will enable DM verity to recover from storage
failures seen since DM verity was first deployed as part of Android.
- A stable fix for a race in the destruction of DM thin pool's workqueue
- A stable fix for hung IO if a DM snapshot copy hit an error
- A few small cleanups in DM core and DM persistent data.
- A couple DM thinp range discard improvements (address atomicity of
finding a range and the efficiency of discarding a partially mapped
thin device)
- Add ability to debug DM bufio leaks by recording stack trace when a
buffer is allocated. Upon detected leak the recorded stack is dumped.
