Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer:

 - Fix DM-raid's raid1 discard limits so discards work.

 - Select missing Kconfig dependencies for DM integrity and zoned
   targets.

 - Four fixes for DM crypt target's support to optionally bypass kcryptd
   workqueues.

 - Fix DM snapshot merge supports missing data flushes before committing
   metadata.

 - Fix DM integrity data device flushing when external metadata is used.

 - Fix DM integrity's maximum number of supported constructor arguments
   that user can request when creating an integrity device.

 - Eliminate DM core ioctl logging noise when an ioctl is issued without
   required CAP_SYS_RAWIO permission.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
