[PATCH 0/2] Avoid deadlocks with bio allocation

From: Kent Overstreet
Date: Fri Sep 07 2012 - 18:13:27 EST


These patches were part of the block cleanups series I just sent out, but I
split them off. Nothing's changed with them lately, the last thing I added was
a bit of logic to the "punt to rescue" code to only punt bios that were
allocated from the current bio_set.

Kent Overstreet (2):
block: Reorder struct bio_set
block: Avoid deadlocks with bio allocation by stacking drivers
