Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block bits from Jens Axboe:
 "As vacation is coming up, thought I'd better get rid of my pending
  changes in my for-linus branch for this iteration.  It contains:

   - Two patches for mtip32xx.  Killing a non-compliant sysfs interface
     and moving it to debugfs, where it belongs.

   - A few patches from Asias.  Two legit bug fixes, and one killing an
     interface that is no longer in use.

   - A patch from Jan, making the annoying partition ioctl warning a bit
     less annoying, by restricting it to !CAP_SYS_RAWIO only.

   - Three bug fixes for drbd from Lars Ellenberg.

   - A fix for an old regression for umem, it hasn't really worked since
     the plugging scheme was changed in 3.0.

   - A few fixes from Tejun.

   - A splice fix from Eric Dumazet, fixing an issue with pipe
     resizing."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  scsi: Silence unnecessary warnings about ioctl to partition
  block: Drop dead function blk_abort_queue()
  block: Mitigate lock unbalance caused by lock switching
  block: Avoid missed wakeup in request waitqueue
  umem: fix up unplugging
  splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses
  drbd: fix null pointer dereference with on-congestion policy when diskless
  drbd: fix list corruption by failing but already aborted reads
  drbd: fix access of unallocated pages and kernel panic
  xen/blkfront: Add WARN to deal with misbehaving backends.
  blkcg: drop local variable @q from blkg_destroy()
  mtip32xx: Create debugfs entries for troubleshooting
  mtip32xx: Remove 'registers' and 'flags' from sysfs
  blkcg: fix blkg_alloc() failure path
  block: blkcg_policy_cfq shouldn't be used if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED
  block: fix return value on cfq_init() failure
  mtip32xx: Remove version.h header file inclusion
  xen/blkback: Copy id field when doing BLKIF_DISCARD.
