  md: fix another deadlock with removing sysfs attributes.
  md: move revalidate_disk() back outside open_mutex
  md/raid10: fix deadlock with unaligned read during resync
  md/bitmap:  separate out loading a bitmap from initialising the structures.
  md/bitmap: prepare for storing write-intent-bitmap via dm-dirty-log.
  md/bitmap: optimise scanning of empty bitmaps.
  md/bitmap: clean up plugging calls.
  md/bitmap: reduce dependence on sysfs.
  md/bitmap: white space clean up and similar.
  md/raid5: export raid5 unplugging interface.
  md/plug: optionally use plugger to unplug an array during resync/recovery.
  md/raid5: add simple plugging infrastructure.
  md/raid5: export is_congested test
  raid5: Don't set read-ahead when there is no queue
  md: add support for raising dm events.
  md: export various start/stop interfaces
  md: split out md_rdev_init
  md: be more careful setting MD_CHANGE_CLEAN
  md/raid5: ensure we create a unique name for kmem_cache when mddev has no gendisk
