Merge tag 'dm-3.14-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device-mapper changes from Mike Snitzer:
"A lot of attention was paid to improving the thin-provisioning
target's handling of metadata operation failures and running out of
space. A new 'error_if_no_space' feature was added to allow users to
error IOs rather than queue them when either the data or metadata
space is exhausted.
Additional fixes/features include:
- a few fixes to properly support thin metadata device resizing
- a solution for reliably waiting for a DM device's embedded kobject
to be released before destroying the device
- old dm-snapshot is updated to use the dm-bufio interface to take
advantage of readahead capabilities that improve snapshot
activation
- new dm-cache target tunables to control how quickly data is
promoted to the cache (fast) device
- improved write efficiency of cluster mirror target by combining
userspace flush and mark requests"
