Pull device-mapper changes from Alasdair G Kergon: "Add a device-mapper target called dm-switch to provide a multipath framework for storage arrays that dynamically reconfigure their preferred paths for different device regions. Fix a bug in the verity target that prevented its use with some specific sizes of devices. Improve some locking mechanisms in the device-mapper core and bufio. Add Mike Snitzer as a device-mapper maintainer. A few more clean-ups and fixes" * tag 'dm-3.11-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-dm: dm: add switch target dm: update maintainers dm: optimize reorder structure dm: optimize use SRCU and RCU dm bufio: submit writes outside lock dm cache: fix arm link errors with inline dm verity: use __ffs and __fls dm flakey: correct ctr alloc failure mesg dm verity: remove pointless comparison dm: use __GFP_HIGHMEM in __vmalloc dm verity: fix inability to use a few specific devices sizes dm ioctl: set noio flag to avoid __vmalloc deadlock dm mpath: fix ioctl deadlock when no paths
