md-change-lifetime-rules-for-md-devices.patch still has a cloud over its
head (Jiri Kosina <jikos@xxxxxxxx>'s repeatable failure), so I staged these
new patches as below:


 md-fix-innocuous-bug-in-raid6-stripe_to_pdidx.patch
 #
 md-conditionalize-some-code.patch
+md-remove-some-old-ifdefed-out-code-from-raid5c.patch
+md-return-a-non-zero-error-to-bi_end_io-as-appropriate-in-raid5.patch
+md-assorted-md-and-raid1-one-liners.patch
 md-change-lifetime-rules-for-md-devices.patch
+md-close-a-race-between-destroying-and-recreating-an-md-device.patch
+md-allow-mddevs-to-live-a-bit-longer-to-avoid-a-loop-with-udev.patch

So the last three are maybe-not-for-2.6.20.

Does that sounds sane?
