dm cache: handle kmalloc failure allocating background_tracker struct (2017-05-17 09:44:53 -0400)
Please pull, thanks.
Mike
----------------------------------------------------------------
- A couple DM thin provisioning fixes
- A few request-based DM and DM multipath fixes for issues that were
made when merging Christoph's changes with Bart's changes for 4.12
- A DM bufio unsigned overflow fix
- A couple pure fixes for the DM cache target.
- Various very small tweaks to the DM cache target that enable
considerable speed improvements in the face of continuous IO. Given
that the cache target was significantly reworked for 4.12 I see no
reason to sit on these advances until 4.13 considering the favorable
results associated with such minimalist tweaks.
