  pipe: set lower and upper limit on max pages in the pipe page array
  pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes

  writeback: fix mixed up arguments to bdi_start_writeback()
  writeback: fix problem with !CONFIG_BLOCK compilation
  block: improve automatic native capacity unlocking
  block: use struct parsed_partitions *state universally in partition check code
  block,ide: simplify bdops->set_capacity() to ->unlock_native_capacity()
  block: restart partition scan after resizing a device
  buffer: make invalidate_bdev() drain all percpu LRU add caches
  block: remove all rcu head initializations
  writeback: fixups for !dirty_writeback_centisecs
  writeback: bdi_writeback_task() must set task state before calling schedule()
  writeback: ensure that WB_SYNC_NONE writeback with sb pinned is sync
  drivers/block/drbd: Use kzalloc
