Hi Linus, Round 2 of this. I cut back to the bare necessities, the patch is still larger than it usually would be at this time, due to the number of NVMe fixes in there. This pull request contains: - The 4 core fixes from Ming, that fix both problems with exceeding the virtual boundary limit in case of merging, and the gap checking for cloned bio's. - NVMe fixes from Keith and Christoph: - Regression on larger user commands, causing problems with reading log pages (for instance). This touches both NVMe, and the block core since that is now generally utilized also for these types of commands. - Hot removal fixes. - User exploitable issue with passthrough IO commands, if !length is given, causing us to fault on writing to the zero page. - Fix for a hang under error conditions - And finally, the current series regression for umount with cgroup writeback, where the final flush would happen async and hence open up window after umount where the device wasn't consistent. fsck right after umount would show this. From Tejun. Please pull this round, and we'll ensure that the load is distributed better going forward.
