PULL REQUEST - md updates for 2.6.38

Hi Linus,
please pull some md update as below.

There is an unfortunately high number for fixes for regressions - obvi=
ously
someone hasn't been doing methodical testing as often as he would like=
to.

Most of this is bug fixes. For the few that are new functionality, mo=
st of
them are related to our work to make md and dm able to share more code=


Thanks,
NeilBrown
