[dm-devel] [for-4.16 PATCH v2 0/3] block: some genhd changes

[Mike Snitzer]

Hi Jens,

Please consider PATCH 1 and 2 for 4.16 inclusion.  I've included PATCH
3 to show the DM changes needed in order to make use of these block
changes.

v2: added some del_gendisk() code movement to be symmetric with the
    device_add_disk() related code movement (suggested by Bart).  Also
    fixed a missing !GENHD_FL_HIDDEN check before the "bdi" symlink
    creation.

Thanks!
Mike

Mike Snitzer (3):
  block: only bdi_unregister() in del_gendisk() if !GENHD_FL_HIDDEN
  block: cope with gendisk's 'queue' being added later
  dm: fix awkward request_queue initialization
