Hi

This is patch for shared snapshots to be included in the next merge 
window. The patch only adds new modules dm_multisnapshot and 
dm_store_mikulas, it doesn't modify any existing code.

It already works with userspace code.

The disk format is supposed to be stable, there would be hopefully no more 
changes to it.

The patch can be downloaded at
