* 'for-2.6.35' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block: (86 commits)
  pipe: set lower and upper limit on max pages in the pipe page array
  pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes
  drbd: This is now equivalent to drbd release 8.3.8rc1
  drbd: Do not free p_uuid early, this is done in the exit code of the receiver
  drbd: Null pointer deref fix to the large "multi bio rewrite"
  drbd: Fix: Do not detach, if a bio with a barrier fails
  drbd: Ensure to not trigger late-new-UUID creation multiple times
  drbd: Do not Oops when C_STANDALONE when uuid gets generated
  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
