Merge tag 'md/4.4' of git://neil.brown.name/md
Pull md updates from Neil Brown:
"Two major components to this update.
1) The clustered-raid1 support from SUSE is nearly complete. There
are a few outstanding issues being worked on. Maybe half a dozen
patches will bring this to a usable state.
2) The first stage of journalled-raid5 support from Facebook makes an
appearance. With a journal device configured (typically NVRAM or
SSD), the "RAID5 write hole" should be closed - a crash during
degraded operations cannot result in data corruption.
The next stage will be to use the journal as a write-behind cache
so that latency can be reduced and in some cases throughput
increased by performing more full-stripe writes.
