[2.6.22 PATCH 16/26] dm io: new interface

From: Alasdair G Kergon
Date: Tue May 08 2007 - 15:49:08 EST


From: Heinz Mauelshagen <hjm@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add a new API to dm-io.c that uses a private mempool and bio_set for each
client.

The new functions to use are dm_io_client_create(), dm_io_client_destroy(),
dm_io_client_resize() and dm_io().
