Merge tag 'for-5.7/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - Add DM writecache "cleaner" policy feature that allows cache to be
   flushed while userspace monitors for completion to then discommision
   use of caching.

 - Optimize DM writecache superblock writing and also yield CPU while
   initializing writecache on large PMEM devices to avoid CPU stalls.

 - Various fixes to DM integrity target while preparing for the ability
   to resize a DM integrity device. In addition to resize support, add
   optional discard support with the "allow_discards" feature.

 - Fix DM clone target's discard handling and overflow bugs which could
   cause data corruption.

 - Fix memory leak in destructor for DM verity FEC support.

 - Fix DM zoned target's redundant increment of nr_rnd_zones.

 - Small cleanup in DM crypt to use crypt_integrity_aead() helper.
