Merge branch 'for-4.4/io-poll' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block IO poll support from Jens Axboe:
"Various groups have been doing experimentation around IO polling for
(really) fast devices. The code has been reviewed and has been
sitting on the side for a few releases, but this is now good enough
for coordinated benchmarking and further experimentation.
Currently O_DIRECT sync read/write are supported. A framework is in
the works that allows scalable stats tracking so we can auto-tune
this. And we'll add libaio support as well soon. Fow now, it's an
opt-in feature for test purposes"
