* 'for-2.6.32' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block: (29 commits)
  block: use blkdev_issue_discard in blk_ioctl_discard
  Make DISCARD_BARRIER and DISCARD_NOBARRIER writes instead of reads
  block: don't assume device has a request list backing in nr_requests store
  block: Optimal I/O limit wrapper
  cfq: choose a new next_req when a request is dispatched
  Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requests
  aoe: end barrier bios with EOPNOTSUPP
  block: trace bio queueing trial only when it occurs
  block: enable rq CPU completion affinity by default
  cfq: fix the log message after dispatched a request
  block: use printk_once
  cciss: memory leak in cciss_init_one()
  splice: update mtime and atime on files
  block: make blk_iopoll_prep_sched() follow normal 0/1 return convention
  cfq-iosched: get rid of must_alloc flag
  block: use interrupts disabled version of raise_softirq_irqoff()
  block: fix comment in blk-iopoll.c
  block: adjust default budget for blk-iopoll
  block: fix long lines in block/blk-iopoll.c
  block: add blk-iopoll, a NAPI like approach for block devices
