| |
Hi Linus,
First of the topic branches, these are on top of core+drivers. This first one adds support for lightnvm, and adds support to NVMe as well. This is pretty exciting, in that it enables new and interesting use cases for compatible flash devices. There's a LWN writeup about an earlier posting here:

This has been underway for a while, and should be ready for merging at this point. Please pull!
