[GIT PULL] Follow up block fixes

From: Jens Axboe
Date: Fri May 27 2011 - 09:10:28 EST


Hi Linus,

Mainly pushing this a bit early to resolve an oops that has been
reported by Eric Dumazet. Some good fixes apart from that, though,
Namhyung Kim has been busy fixing oopsable conditions in brd, loop,
and nbd. The latter is not in yet. Most patches are stable candidates.

- Fix floppy regression from Tejun
- brd/loop fixes from Namhyung Kim
- Removal of an only-written variable in bio_attempt_front_merge()
- Export blk_{get,put}_queue() for the SCSI fix
- Fix oops shortly after boot reported by Eric.


Please pull.
