The conflicts are of two varieties:

1) Conflicts with Joe Perches's 'extern' removal from header file
function declarations. Usually it's an argument signature change
or a function being added/removed. The resolutions are trivial.

2) Some overlapping changes in qmi_wwan.c and be.h, one commit adds
a new value, another changes an existing value. That sort of
thing.

"A few fixes for dm-snapshot, a 32 bit fix for dm-stats, a couple error
handling fixes for dm-multipath. A fix for the thin provisioning
target to not expose non-zero discard limits if discards are disabled.

Lastly, add two DM module parameters which allow users to tune the
emergency memory reserves that DM mainatins per device -- this helps
fix a long-standing issue for dm-multipath. The conservative default
reserve for request-based dm-multipath devices (256) has proven
problematic for users with many multipathed SCSI devices but
relatively little memory. To responsibly select a smaller value users
should use the new nr_bios tracepoint info (via commit 75afb352
"block: Add nr_bios to block_rq_remap tracepoint") to determine the
peak number of bios their workloads create"

dm stats: fix possible counter corruption on 32-bit systems

There was a deliberate race condition in dm_stat_for_entry() to avoid the
overhead of disabling and enabling interrupts. The race could result in
some events not being counted on 64-bit architectures.

However, on 32-bit architectures, operations on long long variables are
not atomic, so the race condition could cause the counter to jump by 2^32.
Such jumps could be disruptive, so we need to do proper locking on 32-bit
architectures.

dm: add statistics support

Support the collection of I/O statistics on user-defined regions of
a DM device. If no regions are defined no statistics are collected so
there isn't any performance impact. Only bio-based DM devices are
currently supported.

Each user-defined region specifies a starting sector, length and step.
Individual statistics will be collected for each step-sized area within
the range specified.

The I/O statistics counters for each step-sized area of a region are
in the same format as /sys/block/*/stat or /proc/diskstats but extra
counters (12 and 13) are provided: total time spent reading and
writing in milliseconds. All these counters may be accessed by sending
the @stats_print message to the appropriate DM device via dmsetup.

The creation of DM statistics will allocate memory via kmalloc or
fallback to using vmalloc space. At most, 1/4 of the overall system
memory may be allocated by DM statistics. The admin can see how much
memory is used by reading
/sys/module/dm_mod/parameters/stats_current_allocated_bytes

See Documentation/device-mapper/statistics.txt for more details.
