Pull futex fix from Ingo Molnar:

 - Also allocate a default private futex hash on vfork() as well, to
   avoid races with (private) futex waiters (Peter Zijlstra)

+=========
+
+Device-Mapper's "linear" target maps a linear range of the Device-Mapper
+device onto a linear range of another device.  This is the basic building
+block of logical volume managers.
+
+Parameters: <dev path> <offset>
+    <dev path>:
+	Full pathname to the underlying block-device, or a
+        "major:minor" device-number.
+    <offset>:
+	Starting sector within the device.
+
+
+Example scripts
+===============
+
+::
+
+  #!/bin/sh
+  # Create an identity mapping for a device
+  echo "0 `blockdev --getsz $1` linear $1 0" | dmsetup create identity
+
+::
+
+  #!/bin/sh
+  # Join 2 devices together
+  size1=`blockdev --getsz $1`
+  size2=`blockdev --getsz $2`
+  echo "0 $size1 linear $1 0
+  $size1 $size2 linear $2 0" | dmsetup create joined
+
+::
+
+  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
+  # Split a device into 4M chunks and then join them together in reverse order.
