[dm-devel] [git pull] device mapper changes for 6.1

[Mike Snitzer]

Hi Linus,

I missed sending the DM changes during the 6.1 merge window. Slipped my
mind largely due to there not being anything super urgent or more
elaborate this cycle.

But there is one additional stable@ fix from Mikulas that I'll send
separately since it requires the recently introduced test_bit_acquire().

The following changes since commit 1c23f9e627a7b412978b4e852793c5e3c3efc555:

  Linux 6.0-rc2 (2022-08-21 17:32:54 -0700)

  dm clone: Fix typo in block_device format specifier (2022-10-04 19:00:22 -0400)

Please pull, thanks.

----------------------------------------------------------------
- DM core replace DMWARN with DMERR or DMCRIT for fatal errors.

- Enhance DM ioctl interface to allow returning an error string to
  userspace. Depends on exporting is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() to allow
  DM core to conditionally free memory allocated with kasprintf().

- Enable WQ_HIGHPRI on DM verity target's verify_wq.

- Add documentation for DM verity's try_verify_in_tasklet option.

- Various typo and redundant word fixes in code and/or comments.
