As 3.0 is fast approaching it is long past time to publish my patch
queue for 3.1. Much of it has been in -next for a while and while
that enabled testing it doesn't really encourage review.
So this is the first of 2 patch-bombs I will be sending which comprise
all of the changes is (currently) plan to submit for 3.1.
This set is mostly ad-hoc bits and pieces. Code clean up and minor
bugs fixes and so forth. Probably the strongest theme is some
refactoring in raid5 to reduce code duplication between RAID5 and
RAID6. (almost) all similar code has been factored into common
routines.
All "Reviewed-by" lines gratefully accepted ... until early-ish next
week when I will submit that code to Linus. If anyone is keen to do
some review, the RAID5 changes is where I would be most happy to have
it focused. Remember: if something doesn't look right, it probably
isn't.
Some of these patches have been seen on the list already, but I
thought it best to simply include them all for completeness.
