* 'for-linus' of git://neil.brown.name/md:
  async_tx: fix asynchronous raid6 recovery for ddf layouts
  async_pq: rename scribble page
  async_pq: kill a stray dma_map() call and other cleanups
  md/raid6: kill a gcc-4.0.1 'uninitialized variable' warning
  raid6/async_tx: handle holes in block list in async_syndrome_val
  md/async: don't pass a memory pointer as a page pointer.
  md: Fix handling of raid5 array which is being reshaped to fewer devices.
  md: fix problems with RAID6 calculations for DDF.
  md/raid456: downlevel multicore operations to raid_run_ops
  md: drivers/md/unroll.pl replaced with awk analog
  md: remove clumsy usage of do_sync_mapping_range from bitmap code
  md: raid1/raid10: handle allocation errors during array setup.
  md/raid5: initialize conf->device_lock earlier
  md/raid1/raid10: add a cond_resched
  Revert "md: do not progress the resync process if the stripe was blocked"
