Linus Torvalds 237045fc3c Merge branch 'for-4.6/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the block driver pull request for this merge window.  It sits
  on top of for-4.6/core, that was just sent out.

  This contains:

   - A set of fixes for lightnvm.  One from Alan, fixing an overflow,
     and the rest from the usual suspects, Javier and Matias.

   - A set of fixes for nbd from Markus and Dan, and a fixup from Arnd
     for correct usage of the signed 64-bit divider.

   - A set of bug fixes for the Micron mtip32xx, from Asai.

   - A fix for the brd discard handling from Bart.

   - Update the maintainers entry for cciss, since that hardware has
     transferred ownership.

   - Three bug fixes for bcache from Eric Wheeler.

   - Set of fixes for xen-blk{back,front} from Jan and Konrad.

   - Removal of the cpqarray driver.  It has been disabled in Kconfig
     since 2013, and we were initially scheduled to remove it in 3.15.

   - Various updates and fixes for NVMe, with the most important being:

        - Removal of the per-device NVMe thread, replacing that with a
          watchdog timer instead. From Christoph.

        - Exposing the namespace WWID through sysfs, from Keith.

        - Set of cleanups from Ming Lin.

        - Logging the controller device name instead of the underlying
          PCI device name, from Sagi.

        - And a bunch of fixes and optimizations from the usual suspects
          in this area"

tristate "NVM Express block device"
depends on PCI && BLOCK
select NVME_CORE
---help---
The NVM Express driver is for solid state drives directly
connected to the PCI or PCI Express bus. If you know you
don't have one of these, it is safe to answer N.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called nvme.
config BLK_DEV_NVME_SCSI
bool "SCSI emulation for NVMe device nodes"
depends on NVME_CORE
---help---
This adds support for the SG_IO ioctl on the NVMe character
and block devices nodes, as well a a translation for a small
number of selected SCSI commands to NVMe commands to the NVMe
driver. If you don't know what this means you probably want
to say N here, unless you run a distro that abuses the SCSI
emulation to provide stable device names for mount by id, like
some OpenSuSE and SLES versions.
