[PATCH 000 of 9] md: Assorted patches for the 2.5.26 merge window

From: NeilBrown
Date: Mon Apr 28 2008 - 23:35:00 EST



Following 9 patches for md are suitable for 2.5.26.
Yes, I really should have submitted them to -mm earlier, but I've been
on leave, sorry.

First patch is a bug fix that should go in 2.6.25.stable.
It has been copied to stable@xxxxxxxxxxx

Others are mostly related to "external" metadata support. i.e. a userspace
program does all the management of metadata, and needs to communicate
with the kernel to do its job properly.
