dm: add switch target
dm-switch is a new target that maps IO to underlying block devices efficiently when there is a large number of fixed-sized address regions but there is no simple pattern to allow for a compact mapping representation such as dm-stripe. Though we have developed this target for a specific storage device, Dell EqualLogic, we have made an effort to keep it as general purpose as possible in the hope that others may benefit. Originally developed by Jim Ramsay. Simplified by Mikulas Patocka.

+ This device-mapper target creates a device that supports an arbitrary
+ mapping of fixed-size regions of I/O across a fixed set of paths.
+ The path used for any specific region can be switched dynamically
