Pull device mapper changes from Mike Snitzer:

 - Allow the thin target to paired with any size external origin; also
   allow thin snapshots to be larger than the external origin.

 - Add support for quickly loading a repetitive pattern into the
   dm-switch target.

 - Use per-bio data in the dm-crypt target instead of always using a
   mempool for each allocation.  Required switching to kmalloc alignment
   for the bio slab.

 - Fix DM core to properly stack the QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE flag

 - Fix the dm-cache and dm-thin targets' export of the minimum_io_size
   to match the data block size -- this fixes an issue where mkfs.xfs
   would improperly infer raid striping was in place on the underlying
   storage.

 - Small cleanups in dm-io, dm-mpath and dm-cache
