Ahhh - One moment please -
While rebasing the v8 on my platform, I noticed some substantial changes since v6.
e.g. the hpb lun ref counting isn't there anymore, as well as some more stuff.
While those changes might be only for the best, I think any tested-by tag should be re-assign.

Anyway, as for myself, I am not planning to put any more time in this,
until there is a clear decision where this series is going to.

Martin - Are you considering to merge the HPB feature eventually to mainline kernel?

Thanks,
Avri
