[dm-devel] [PATCH 0/7] Device mapper and dm-mpath fixes

[Bart Van Assche]

Hello Mike,

The patches in this series are what I came up with while analyzing the
soft and hard lockups reported by Laurence Oberman. Please consider
these patches for kernel v4.14.

Thank you,

Bart.

Bart Van Assche (7):
  dm: Fix the second dec_pending() argument in __split_and_process_bio()
  dm: Fix printk() rate limiting code
  dm-mpath: Do not lock up a CPU with requeuing activity
  dm-mpath: Avoid that building with W=1 causes gcc 7 to complain about
    fall-through
  dm-mpath: Complain about unsupported __multipath_map_bio() return
    values
  dm-mpath: Retry BLK_STS_RESOURCE errors
  dm-mpath: Make the dm-sq requeuing behavior consistent with the dm-mq
    behavior
