Hi, This patch series covers iteration 6 of adding support for block provisioning requests. Changes from v5: - Remove explicit supports_provision from dm devices. - Move provision sectors io hint to pool_io_hint. Other devices will derive the provisioning limits from the stack. - Remove artifact from v4 to omit cell_defer_no_holder for REQ_OP_PROVISION. - Fix blkdev_fallocate() called with invalid fallocate modes to propagate errors correctly.
