<content type='text'>
The function sm_find_free() just returns -ENOSPC and 0.
So remove lone caller's check for some other error.

<id>urn:sha1:ae148243d3f0816b37477106c05a2ec7d5f32614</id>
<content type='text'>
In commit 6096d91af0b6 ("dm space map metadata: fix occasional leak
of a metadata block on resize"), we refactor the commit logic to a new
function 'apply_bops'.  But when that logic was replaced in out() the
return value was not stored.  This may lead out() returning a wrong
value to the caller.

<title>dm btree: fix order of block initialization in btree_split_beneath</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e4f9d6013820d1eba1432d51dd1c5795759aa77f</id>
<content type='text'>
When btree_split_beneath() splits a node to two new children, it will
allocate two blocks: left and right.  If right block's allocation
failed, the left block will be unlocked and marked dirty.  If this
happened, the left block'ss content is zero, because it wasn't
initialized with the btree struct before the attempot to allocate the
right block.  Upon return, when flushing the left block to disk, the
validator will fail when check this block.  Then a BUG_ON is raised.

Fix this by completely initializing the left block before allocating and
initializing the right block.

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - Improve DM snapshot target's scalability by using finer grained
   locking. Requires some list_bl interface improvements.

 - Add ability for DM integrity to use a bitmap mode, that tracks
   regions where data and metadata are out of sync, instead of using a
   journal.

 - Improve DM thin provisioning target to not write metadata changes to
   disk if the thin-pool and associated thin devices are merely
   activated but not used. This avoids metadata corruption due to
   concurrent activation of thin devices across different OS instances
   (e.g. split brain scenarios, which ultimately would be avoided if
   proper device filters were used -- but not having proper filtering
   has proven a very common configuration mistake)

 - Fix missing call to path selector type-&gt;end_io in DM multipath. This
   fixes reported performance problems due to inaccurate path selector
   IO accounting causing an imbalance of IO (e.g. avoiding issuing IO to
   particular path due to it seemingly being heavily used).

 - Fix bug in DM cache metadata's loading of its discard bitset that
   could lead to all cache blocks being discarded if the very first
   cache block was discarded (thankfully in practice the first cache
   block is generally in use; be it FS superblock, partition table, disk
   label, etc).

 - Add testing-only DM dust target which simulates a device that has
   failing sectors and/or read failures.

 - Fix a DM init error path reference count hang that caused boot hangs
   if user supplied malformed input on kernel commandline.

 - Fix a couple issues with DM crypt target's logging being overly
   verbose or lacking context.

 - Various other small fixes to DM init, DM multipath, DM zoned, and DM
   crypt.

Replace the indirection through struct stack_trace with an invocation of
the storage array based interface. This results in less storage space and
indirection.

Otherwise, memory that is allocated (and potentially not previously
zeroed) will get written to disk as part of the space maps.

bitmap API (include/linux/bitmap.h) has 'bitmap' prefix for its methods.

On the other hand DM bitmap API is special case.
Adding 'dm' prefix to it to avoid potential name space collision.

No functional changes intended.

<content type='text'>
Move dm-bufio.h to include/linux/ so that external GPL'd DM target
modules can use it.

It is better to allow the use of dm-bufio than force external modules
to implement the equivalent buffered IO mechanism in some new way.  The
hope is this will encourage the use of dm-bufio; which will then make it
easier for a GPL'd external DM target module to be included upstream.

A couple dm-bufio EXPORT_SYMBOL exports have also been updated to use
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
