[dm-devel] [REVISED PULL REQUEST] md updates for 2.6.36

[Neil Brown]

Hi Linus,
 here is a revised pull request for md updates for 2.6.36.

 To the previous patches (which are unchanged) it adds some work by
 David Woodhouse which moves the RAID6 computations out of drivers/md/
 and places them in /lib so they can be used by other code -
 e.g. btrfs.
 The RAID6 code is completely unchanged (it was already accessed under
 the async-crypto interface so not changes are need to the API).  Only
 it's location and the fact that it can be a stand alone module
 (rather than being in the same module as the rest of md/raid6) has
 changed.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
