Initial EXPERIMENTAL implementation of device-mapper thin provisioning
with snapshot support. The 'thin' target is used to create instances of
the virtual devices that are hosted in the 'thin-pool' target. The
thin-pool target provides data sharing among devices. This sharing is
made possible using the persistent-data library in the previous patch.
The main highlight of this implementation, compared to the previous
implementation of snapshots, is that it allows many virtual devices to
be stored on the same data volume, simplifying administration and
allowing sharing of data between volumes (thus reducing disk usage).
Another big feature is support for arbitrary depth of recursive
snapshots (snapshots of snapshots of snapshots ...). The previous
implementation of snapshots did this by chaining together lookup tables,
and so performance was O(depth). This new implementation uses a single
data structure so we don't get this degradation with depth.
For further information and examples of how to use this, please read
Documentation/device-mapper/thin-provisioning.txt

hwmon: (pmbus/lm25066) Ignore byte writes to non-zero pages
pmbus_clear_faults() attempts to clear faults on non-existing real pages.
As a result, the command error bit in the status register is set, and faults
are not really cleared.
All byte writes to non-zero pages are requests to clear the status register
on that page. Since non-zero pages are virtual and do not exist on the chip,
there is nothing to do, and such requests have to be ignored. This fixes
above problem.

exofs: Fix truncate for the raid-groups case
In the general raid-group case the truncate was wrong in that
it did not also fix the object length of the neighboring groups.
There are two bad cases in the old code:
1. Space that should be freed was not.
2. If a file That was big is truncated small, then made bigger
again, the holes would not contain zeros but could expose old data.
(If the growing of the file expands to more than a full
groups cycle + group size (> S + T))
Since the beginning we realloced the sbi structure when a bigger
then one device table was specified. (I know that was really stupid).
Then much later when "register bdi" was added (By Jens) it was
registering the pointer to sbi->bdi before the realloc.
We never saw this problem because up till now the realloc did not
do anything since the device table was small enough to fit in the
original allocation. But once we starting testing with large device
tables (Bigger then 28) we noticed the crash of writeback operating
on a deallocated pointer.
* Avoid the all mess by allocating the device-table as a second array
and get rid of the variable-sized structure and the rest of this
mess.
* Take the chance to clean near by structures and comments.
* Add a needed dprint on startup to indicate the loaded layout.
* Also move the bdi registration to the very end because it will
only fail in a low memory, which will probably fail before hand.
There are many more likely causes to not load before that. This
way the error handling is made simpler. (Just doing this would be
enough to fix the BUG)

NFSv4.1: Return NFS4ERR_BADSESSION to callbacks during session resets
If the client is in the process of resetting the session when it receives
a callback, then returning NFS4ERR_DELAY may cause a deadlock with the
DESTROY_SESSION call.
Basically, if the client returns NFS4ERR_DELAY in response to the
CB_SEQUENCE call, then the server is entitled to believe that the
client is busy because it is already processing that call. In that
case, the server is perfectly entitled to respond with a
NFS4ERR_BACK_CHAN_BUSY to any DESTROY_SESSION call.
Fix this by having the client reply with a NFS4ERR_BADSESSION in
response to the callback if it is resetting the session.

NFSv4.1: Fix the callback 'highest_used_slotid' behaviour
Currently, there is no guarantee that we will call nfs4_cb_take_slot() even
though nfs4_callback_compound() will consistently call
nfs4_cb_free_slot() provided the cb_process_state has set the 'clp' field.
The result is that we can trigger the BUG_ON() upon the next call to
nfs4_cb_take_slot().
This patch fixes the above problem by using the slot id that was taken in
the CB_SEQUENCE operation as a flag for whether or not we need to call
nfs4_cb_free_slot().
It also fixes an atomicity problem: we need to set tbl->highest_used_slotid
atomically with the check for NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING, otherwise we end up
racing with the various tests in nfs4_begin_drain_session().

When we have a situation that the number of pages we want
to encode is bigger then the size of the bio. (Which can
currently happen only when all IO is going to a single device

report back only the amount of bytes we actually wrote/read

There was a bug that the current length counter was advanced
before the fail to add the extra page, and we come to a situation
that the CDB length was one-page longer then the actual bio size,
which is of course rejected by the osd-target.
While here also fix the bio size calculation, in the case
that we received more then one group of devices.
