Merge tag 'dm-3.8-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-dm
Pull dm update from Alasdair G Kergon:
"Miscellaneous device-mapper fixes, cleanups and performance
improvements.
Of particular note:
- Disable broken WRITE SAME support in all targets except linear and
striped. Use it when kcopyd is zeroing blocks.
- Remove several mempools from targets by moving the data into the
bio's new front_pad area(which dm calls 'per_bio_data').
- Fix a race in thin provisioning if discards are misused.
- Prevent userspace from interfering with the ioctl parameters and
use kmalloc for the data buffer if it's small instead of vmalloc.
- Throttle some annoying error messages when I/O fails."
