Merge tag 'dm-4.1-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - the most extensive changes this cycle are the DM core improvements to
   add full blk-mq support to request-based DM.

    - disabled by default but user can opt-in with CONFIG_DM_MQ_DEFAULT
    - depends on some blk-mq changes from Jens' for-4.1/core branch so
      that explains why this pull is built on linux-block.git

 - update DM to use name_to_dev_t() rather than open-coding a less
   capable device parser.

    - includes a couple small improvements to name_to_dev_t() that offer
      stricter constraints that DM's code provided.

 - improvements to the dm-cache "mq" cache replacement policy.

 - a DM crypt crypt_ctr() error path fix and an async crypto deadlock
   fix

 - a small efficiency improvement for DM crypt decryption by leveraging
   immutable biovecs

 - add error handling modes for corrupted blocks to DM verity

 - a new "log-writes" DM target from Josef Bacik that is meant for file
   system developers to test file system integrity at particular points
   in the life of a file system

 - a few DM log userspace cleanups and fixes

 - a few Documentation fixes (for thin, cache, crypt and switch)
