Merge branch 'for-3.9-async' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull async changes from Tejun Heo:
"These are followups for the earlier deadlock issue involving async
ending up waiting for itself through block requesting module[1]. The
following changes are made by these commits.
- Instead of requesting default elevator on each request_queue init,
block now requests it once early during boot.
- Kmod triggers warning if invoked from an async worker.
- Async synchronization implementation has been reimplemented. It's
a lot simpler now."
* 'for-3.9-async' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
async: initialise list heads to fix crash
async: replace list of active domains with global list of pending items
async: keep pending tasks on async_domain and remove async_pending
async: use ULLONG_MAX for infinity cookie value
async: bring sanity to the use of words domain and running
async, kmod: warn on synchronous request_module() from async workers
block: don't request module during elevator init
init, block: try to load default elevator module early during boot
