Merge branch 'for-3.4/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Browse Source 
Pull block core bits from Jens Axboe:
 "It's a nice and quiet round this time, since most of the tricky stuff
  has been pushed to 3.5 to give it more time to mature.  After a few
  hectic block IO core changes for 3.3 and 3.2, I'm quite happy with a
  slow round.

  Really minor stuff in here, the only real functional change is making
  the auto-unplug threshold a per-queue entity.  The threshold is set so
  that it's low enough that we don't hold off IO for too long, but still
  big enough to get a nice benefit from the batched insert (and hence
  queue lock cost reduction).  For raid configurations, this currently
  breaks down."

* 'for-3.4/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  block: make auto block plug flush threshold per-disk based
  Documentation: Add sysfs ABI change for cfq's target latency.
  block: Make cfq_target_latency tunable through sysfs.
  block: use lockdep_assert_held for queue locking
  block: blk_alloc_queue_node(): use caller's GFP flags instead of GFP_KERNEL

What: /sys/block/<device>/iosched/target_latency
Date: March 2012
contact: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com>
Description:
The /sys/block/<device>/iosched/target_latency only exists
when the user sets cfq to /sys/block/<device>/scheduler.
It contains an estimated latency time for the cfq. cfq will
use it to calculate the time slice used for every task.
