2009-04-02	dm: preserve bi_io_vec when resubmitting bios	Mikulas Patocka	1	-0/+26
	Device mapper saves and restores various fields in the bio, but it doesn't save bi_io_vec. If the device driver modifies this after a partially successful request, dm-raid1 and dm-multipath may attempt to resubmit a bio that has bi_size inconsistent with the size of vector. To make requests resubmittable in dm-raid1 and dm-multipath, we must save and restore the bio vector as well. To reduce the memory overhead involved in this, we do not save the pages in a vector and use a 16-bit field size if the page size is less than 65536.

	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
