Joe Thornber	a3aefb395e	dm persistent data: remove redundant value_size arg from value_ptr ... Now that the value_size is held within every node of the btrees we can remove this argument from value_ptr(). For the last few months a BUG_ON has been checking this argument is the same as that held in the node. No issues were reported. So this is a safe change.

Paul Gortmaker	1944ce60fe	drivers/md: change module.h -> export.h in persistent-data/dm-* ... For the files which are not themselves modular, we can change them to include only the smaller export.h since all they are doing is looking for EXPORT_SYMBOL.

Joe Thornber	3241b1d3e0	dm: add persistent data library ... The persistent-data library offers a re-usable framework for the storage and management of on-disk metadata in device-mapper targets. It's used by the thin-provisioning target in the next patch and in an upcoming hierarchical storage target.
