Pull LogFS bugfixes from Prasad Joshi:

 - "logfs: query block device for number of pages to send with bio"

	This BUG was found when LogFS was used on KVM. The patch fixes
	the problem by asking for underlaying block device the number
	of pages to send with each BIO.

 - "logfs: maintain the ordering of meta-inode destruction"

	LogFS maintains file system meta-data in special inodes. These
	inodes are releated to each other, therefore they must be
	destroyed in a proper order.

 - "logfs: initialize the number of iovecs in bio"

	LogFS used to panic when it was created on an encrypted LVM
	volume. The patch fixes the problem by properly initializing
	the BIO.

Plus a couple more:
 - logfs: create a pagecache page if it is not present
 - logfs: destroy the reserved inodes while unmounting
