Following are 8 patches for md in 2.6.13-rc6-mm1. The first patch could usefully go into 2.6.13. The remainder should wait for 2.6.14-rc1. Number 001 simply calls md_wakeup_thread during raid startup to make sure that resync gets started. It is always perfectly safe to call this function -- as long as we don't call it continuously -- as an extra wakeup doesn't hurt. The remainder fix: bugs in code that is only in -mm as yet, minor bugs in recently added 'bitmap' code, fix a long standing shortcoming with 'linear' the only one person has complained about.
