  virtio-blk: use ida to allocate disk index
  hpsa: add small delay when using PCI Power Management to reset for kump
  cciss: add small delay when using PCI Power Management to reset for kump
  xen/blkback: Fix two races in the handling of barrier requests.
  xen/blkback: Check for proper operation.
  xen/blkback: Fix the inhibition to map pages when discarding sector ranges.
  xen/blkback: Report VBD_WSECT (wr_sect) properly.
  xen/blkback: Support 'feature-barrier' aka old-style BARRIER requests.
  xen-blkfront: plug device number leak in xlblk_init() error path
  xen-blkfront: If no barrier or flush is supported, use invalid operation.
  xen-blkback: use kzalloc() in favor of kmalloc()+memset()
  xen-blkback: fixed indentation and comments
  xen-blkfront: fix a deadlock while handling discard response
  xen-blkfront: Handle discard requests.
  xen-blkback: Implement discard requests ('feature-discard')
  xen-blkfront: add BLKIF_OP_DISCARD and discard request struct
  drivers/block/loop.c: remove unnecessary bdev argument from loop_clr_fd()
  drivers/block/loop.c: emit uevent on auto release
  drivers/block/cpqarray.c: use pci_dev->revision
  loop: always allow userspace partitions and optionally support automatic scanning
  ...

Fic up trivial header file includsion conflict in drivers/block/loop.c

* Recognised only if "feature-discard" is present in backend xenbus info.
* The "feature-discard" node contains a boolean indicating whether trim
* (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) - conviently called discard requests are likely
* to succeed or fail. Either way, a discard request
* may fail at any time with BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP if it is unsupported by
* the underlying block-device hardware. The boolean simply indicates whether
* or not it is worthwhile for the frontend to attempt discard requests.
* If a backend does not recognise BLKIF_OP_DISCARD, it should *not*
* create the "feature-discard" node!
*
* Discard operation is a request for the underlying block device to mark
* extents to be erased. However, discard does not guarantee that the blocks
* will be erased from the device - it is just a hint to the device
* controller that these blocks are no longer in use. What the device
* controller does with that information is left to the controller.
* Discard operations are passed with sector_number as the
* sector index to begin discard operations at and nr_sectors as the number of
* sectors to be discarded. The specified sectors should be discarded if the
* underlying block device supports trim (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) operations,
* or a BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP should be returned.
* More information about trim/unmap operations at:
