Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A smaller collection of fixes for the block core that would be nice to
  have in -rc2.  This pull request contains:

   - Fixes for races in the wait/wakeup logic used in blk-mq from
     Alexander.  No issues have been observed, but it is definitely a
     bit flakey currently.  Alternatively, we may drop the cyclic
     wakeups going forward, but that needs more testing.

   - Some cleanups from Christoph.

   - Fix for an oops in null_blk if queue_mode=1 and softirq completions
     are used.  From me.

   - A fix for a regression caused by the chunk size setting.  It
     inadvertently used max_hw_sectors instead of max_sectors, which is
     incorrect, and causes hangs on btrfs multi-disk setups (where hw
     sectors apparently isn't set).  From me.

   - Removal of WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT in the kblockd creation.  This was a
     recent addition as well, but it actually breaks blk-mq which relies
     on strict scheduling.  If the workqueue power_efficient mode is
     turned on, this breaks blk-mq.  From Matias.

   - null_blk module parameter description fix from Mike"
