Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "I've got a few bits pending for 3.8 final, that I better get sent out.
  It's all been sitting for a while, I consider it safe.

  It contains:

   - Two bug fixes for mtip32xx, fixing a driver hang and a crash.

   - A few-liner protocol error fix for drbd.

   - A few fixes for the xen block front/back driver, fixing a potential
     data corruption issue.

   - A race fix for disk_clear_events(), causing spurious warnings.  Out
     of the Chrome OS base.

   - A deadlock fix for disk_clear_events(), moving it to the a
     unfreezable workqueue.  Also from the Chrome OS base."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  drbd: fix potential protocol error and resulting disconnect/reconnect
  mtip32xx: fix for crash when the device surprise removed during rebuild
  mtip32xx: fix for driver hang after a command timeout
  block: prevent race/cleanup
  block: remove deadlock in disk_clear_events
  xen-blkfront: handle bvecs with partial data
  llist/xen-blkfront: implement safe version of llist_for_each_entry
  xen-blkback: implement safe iterator for the list of persistent grants
