[GIT PULL] block driver bits for 3.7

From: Jens Axboe
Date: Mon Oct 29 2012 - 14:21:21 EST


Hi Linus,

Later than I would have liked, but I was traveling around the merge
window and then a fixes snuck in past that and I wanted to ensure that
everything was fully baked again. There was a particular issue around a
floppy regression due to the genhd change, which has now gotten
reverted. So without further ado, here are the driver updates queued up
for 3.7. It contains:

- Updates to the Micron mtip32xx real-ssd card from Micron.
- A few fixes for loop, from Dave Chinner and Eric Biederman.
- A round of floppy fixes, and a subsequent revert of genhd
part since it caused regressions.
- The usual round of drbd updates/fixes.
- A single xen-blkback fixup.
- A few other minor fixes and/or code cleanups.
- memstick driver and later revert, this isn't well reviewed
enough yet to go directly in.

Please pull!
