multipath_busy. This impacted cable-pull testing and also the ability to boot with IPR SCSI on a POWER8 box. . Fix possible deadlock with deferred device removal by using a new dedicated workqueue rather than using the system workqueue. . Fix NULL pointer crash due to race condition in dm-io's wake up code for sync_io by using a completion. . Update dm-crypt and dm-zero author name following legal name change; this is important to Jana so I didn't see any reason to hold it back. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABAgAGBQJTv+hvAAoJEMUj8QotnQNawwMH/2yQ7AE3dh44jGr1fp0UEP8e Vd7HWtUJAm4+lYkPH7AjLCw3YBwWh/ajLXAwMpPBI878o5sgoWTfnq0hbecqoWkt 5EugETiZ20C3K/llNFpw9xdtlObFwI21WUGqmu8ygYvfSvdbg6THPT5o8BdtEvnb MDBrrrpBpUwMCGw3v7jIoYrKZbWmp46iy5KwVqBbXnD3shpOU8KpasyIOrqlrqjJ z7BzfprN6ut1zaVs83N4iPMPnSPrIloUisGpPn1r74qRYUv/AXQgiv09WPA3keTN erRGFU9Mr0I4MGOLTuqHyCVO0t4tze1pL8jwEk29GUkXXcr9Is4p9I307Cm7WvE= =pBlO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'dm-3.16-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer: - Fix DM multipath IO hang regression from 3.15 due to logic bug in multipath_busy.
