[GIT PULL] block IO patches for 3.2-rc

From: Jens Axboe
Date: Thu Dec 29 2011 - 03:20:06 EST


Hi Linus,

A trivial patch and two bug fixes that should make it
into 3.2 final:

- Fix a regression introduced when shrinking the tag
queue depth dynamically on a device using the block
layer tagging.

- Fix a potential oops/crash on an edge merge case
of CFQ cfqq queues.

- Trivial cleanup.

Please pull!
