Please pull from:

  master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-2.6-dm.git master

to get device-mapper fixes and enhancements for inclusion in 2.6.33-rc1.

The main new feature is support for merging the changes held in a
snapshot back into the original device.  Barriers are now supported
by all the types of dm devices.
