Merge branch 'for-2.6.33' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block
* 'for-2.6.33' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block: cfq: set workload as expired if it doesn't have any slice left Fix a CFQ crash in "for-2.6.33" branch of block tree cfq: Remove wait_request flag when idle time is being deleted cfq-iosched: commenting non-obvious initialization cfq-iosched: Take care of corner cases of group losing share due to deletion cfq-iosched: Get rid of cfqq wait_busy_done flag cfq: Optimization for close cooperating queue searching block,xd: Delay allocation of DMA buffers until device is known drbd: Following the hmac change to SHASH (see linux commit 8bd1209cfff) cfq-iosched: reduce write depth only if sync was delayed
