[dm-devel] [2.6.22 PATCH 11/26] dm log: fault detection

From: Jonathan E Brassow <jbrassow at redhat.com>

This patch gives the disk logging code the ability to store the fact
that an error occured on the log device.  In addition, an event is
raised when an error is encountered during I/O to the log device.
