Merge tag 'for-5.8/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - The largest change for this cycle is the DM zoned target's metadata
   version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block devices
   with a zoned device to ease the performance impact associated with
   finite random zones of zoned device.

   The changes came in three batches: the first prepared for and then
   added the ability to pair a single regular block device, the second
   was a batch of fixes to improve zoned's reclaim heuristic, and the
   third removed the limitation of only adding a single additional
   regular block device to allow many devices.

   Testing has shown linear scaling as more devices are added.

 - Add new emulated block size (ebs) target that emulates a smaller
   logical_block_size than a block device supports

   The primary use-case is to emulate "512e" devices that have 512 byte
   logical_block_size and 4KB physical_block_size. This is useful to
   some legacy applications that otherwise wouldn't be able to be used
   on 4K devices because they depend on issuing IO in 512 byte
   granularity.

 - Add discard interfaces to DM bufio. First consumer of the interface
   is the dm-ebs target that makes heavy use of dm-bufio.

 - Fix DM crypt's block queue_limits stacking to not truncate
   logic_block_size.

 - Add Documentation for DM integrity's status line.

 - Switch DMDEBUG from a compile time config option to instead use
   dynamic debug via pr_debug.

 - Fix DM multipath target's hueristic for how it manages
   "queue_if_no_path" state internally.

   DM multipath now avoids disabling "queue_if_no_path" unless it is
   actually needed (e.g. in response to configure timeout or explicit
   "fail_if_no_path" message).

   This fixes reports of spurious -EIO being reported back to userspace
   application during fault tolerance testing with an NVMe backend.
   Added various dynamic DMDEBUG messages to assist with debugging
   queue_if_no_path in the future.

 - Add a new DM multipath "Historical Service Time" Path Selector.

 - Fix DM multipath's dm_blk_ioctl() to switch paths on IO error.

 - Improve DM writecache target performance by using explicit cache
   flushing for target's single-threaded usecase and a small cleanup to
   remove unnecessary test in persistent_memory_claim.

 - Other small cleanups in DM core, dm-persistent-data, and DM
   integrity.
