  dm thin metadata: try to avoid ever aborting transactions (2018-09-10 17:03:18 -0400)

Please pull, thanks!
Mike

----------------------------------------------------------------
- DM verity fix for crash due to using vmalloc'd buffers with the
  asynchronous crypto hadsh API.

- Fix to both DM crypt and DM integrity targets to discontinue using
  CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP because its use of GFP_KERNEL can lead to
  deadlock by recursing back into a filesystem.

- Various DM raid fixes related to reshape and rebuild races.

- Fix for DM thin-provisioning to avoid data corruption that was a
  side-effect of needing to abort DM thin metadata transaction due to
  running out of metadata space.  Fix is to reserve a small amount of
  metadata space so that once it is used the DM thin-pool can finish its
  active transaction before switching to read-only mode.
