Linus Torvalds 15da849c91 - Fix DM multipath by restoring full path selector functionality for
bio-based configurations that don't haave a SCSI device handler.
 
 - Fix dm-btree removal to ensure non-root btree nodes have at least
   (max_entries / 3) entries.  This resolves userspace thin_check
   utility's report of "too few entries in btree_node".
 
 - Fix both the DM thin-provisioning and dm-clone targets to properly
   flush the data device prior to metadata commit.  This resolves the
   potential for inconsistency across a power loss event when the data
   device has a volatile writeback cache.
 
 - Small documentation fixes to dm-clone and dm-integrity.
