Linus Torvalds b25c6644bf - Largest change for this cycle is the DM zoned target's metadata
version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block
   devices with a zoned device to ease performance impact associated
   with finite random zones of zoned device.  Changes came in 3
   batches: first prepared for and then added the ability to pair a
   single regular block device, second was a batch of fixes to improve
   zoned's reclaim heuristic, third removed the limitation of only
   adding a single additional regular block device to allow many
   devices.  Testing has shown linear scaling as more devices are
   added.
 
 - Add new emulated block size (ebs) target that emulates a smaller
   logical_block_size than a block device supports.  Primary use-case
   is to emulate "512e" devices that have 512 byte logical_block_size
   and 4KB physical_block_size.  This is useful to some legacy
   applications otherwise wouldn't be ablee to be used on 4K devices
   because they depend on issuing IO in 512 byte granularity.
 
 - Add discard interfaces to DM bufio.  First consumer of the interface
   is the dm-ebs target that makes heavy use of dm-bufio.
 
 - Fix DM crypt's block queue_limits stacking to not truncate
   logic_block_size.
 
 - Add Documentation for DM integrity's status line.
 
 - Switch DMDEBUG from a compile time config option to instead use
   dynamic debug via pr_debug.
 
 - Fix DM multipath target's hueristic for how it manages
   "queue_if_no_path" state internally.  DM multipath now avoids
   disabling "queue_if_no_path" unless it is actually needed (e.g. in
   response to configure timeout or explicit "fail_if_no_path"
   message).  This fixes reports of spurious -EIO being reported back
   to userspace application during fault tolerance testing with an NVMe
   backend.  Added various dynamic DMDEBUG messages to assist with
   debugging queue_if_no_path in the future.
 
 - Add a new DM multipath "Historical Service Time" Path Selector.
 
 - Fix DM multipath's dm_blk_ioctl() to switch paths on IO error.
 
 - Improve DM writecache target performance by using explicit
   cache flushing for target's single-threaded usecase and a small
   cleanup to remove unnecessary test in persistent_memory_claim.
 
 - Other small cleanups in DM core, dm-persistent-data, and DM integrity.
