Linus Torvalds 8494bcf5b7 Merge branch 'for-3.20/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block driver changes from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains:

   - The 4k/partition fixes for brd from Boaz/Matthew.

   - A few xen front/back block fixes from David Vrabel and Roger Pau
     Monne.

   - Floppy changes from Takashi, cleaning the device file creation.

   - Switching libata to use the new blk-mq tagging policy, removing
     code (and a suboptimal implementation) from libata.  This will
     throw you a merge conflict, since a bug in the original libata
     tagging code was fixed since this code was branched.  Trivial.
     From Shaohua.

   - Conversion of loop to blk-mq, from Ming Lei.

   - Cleanup of the io_schedule() handling in bsg from Peter Zijlstra.
     He claims it improves on unreadable code, which will cost him a
     beer.

   - Maintainer update or NDB, now handled by Markus Pargmann.

   - NVMe:
        - Optimization from me that avoids a kmalloc/kfree per IO for
          smaller (<= 8KB) IO. This cuts about 1% of high IOPS CPU
          overhead.
        - Removal of (now) dead RCU code, a relic from before NVMe was
          converted to blk-mq"
