* 'for-next' of git://neil.brown.name/md:
DM RAID: Add support for MD RAID10
md/RAID1: Add missing case for attempting to repair known bad blocks.

md: remove duplicated test on ->openers when calling do_md_stop()
raid5: Add R5_ReadNoMerge flag which prevent bio from merging at block layer
md/raid1: prevent merging too large request
md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSD
md/raid1: make sequential read detection per disk based
MD RAID10: Export md_raid10_congested
MD: Move macros from raid1*.h to raid1*.c
MD RAID1: rename mirror_info structure
MD RAID10: rename mirror_info structure
MD RAID10: Fix compiler warning.
raid5: add a per-stripe lock

 		The region_size multiplied by the number of regions is the
 		logical size of the array.  The bitmap records the device
 		synchronisation state for each region.
+
+        [raid10_copies   <# copies>]
+        [raid10_format   near]
+		These two options are used to alter the default layout of
+		a RAID10 configuration.  The number of copies is can be
+		specified, but the default is 2.  There are other variations
+		to how the copies are laid down - the default and only current
+		option is "near".  Near copies are what most people think of
+		with respect to mirroring.  If these options are left
+		unspecified, or 'raid10_copies 2' and/or 'raid10_format near'
+		are given, then the layouts for 2, 3 and 4 devices are:
+		2 drives         3 drives          4 drives
+		--------         ----------        --------------
+		A1  A1           A1  A1  A2        A1  A1  A2  A2
+		A2  A2           A2  A3  A3        A3  A3  A4  A4
+		A3  A3           A4  A4  A5        A5  A5  A6  A6
+		A4  A4           A5  A6  A6        A7  A7  A8  A8
+		..  ..           ..  ..  ..        ..  ..  ..  ..
+		The 2-device layout is equivalent 2-way RAID1.  The 4-device
+		layout is what a traditional RAID10 would look like.  The
+		3-device layout is what might be called a 'RAID1E - Integrated
+		Adjacent Stripe Mirroring'.
