Subject: Bcache v. whatever

Bcache: a block layer SSD cache

Does writethrough and writeback, handles unclean shutdown, and has
various other nifty features. See the wiki and the documentation for
more:

http://bcache.evilpiepirate.org

Over the Christmas break I finally got the tree into a self contained
state that ought to be suitable for merging; this tree is fairly close
to the previous stable tree that people have been running on production
servers for awhile (and that I've been running on this workstation), 

So, I think this is ready for mainline and I'd like to get it in. I
should've tried to push it ages ago, but I was hoping to get in various
block layer cleanups first; I finally deided to work around them in the
meantime since I haven't had time to finish the block layer stuff.

Not everything has been addressed since I last posted for review
feedback - notably the closure code was controversial and for now I've
just moved that into drivers/block/bcache (though I've been refactoring
stuff to make it less asynchronous lately; most of that work is in the
testing/dev branches). The bigger issue IMO is the userspace interface -
I'd like to finish the md integration so it doesn't need userspace stuff
for probing/bootup. So, I'd be fine with it going into staging if that's
the consensus, but it's stable tested code.

The code is available at
http://evilpiepirate.org/git/linux-bcache.git bcache-for-upstream

This latest branch is on top of v3.8-rc3:
