I've been beating on this patch kit for the last few weeks with a bunch
of different devices. I have also tested extensively with Shaohua Li's
MD RAID0 discard support.
The only functional change is support for discard and write same
bio/request merging. Other than that there were a few tweaks for later
kernels by both Mike and me.
I put a writesame5 branch on:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mkp/linux.git
It's against block/for-3.7/core.
[PATCH 1/8] block: Clean up special command handling logic
[PATCH 2/8] block: Consolidate command flag and queue limit checks
[PATCH 3/8] block: Implement support for WRITE SAME
[PATCH 4/8] block: Make blkdev_issue_zeroout use WRITE SAME
[PATCH 5/8] block: ioctl to zero block ranges
[PATCH 6/8] scsi: Add a report opcode helper
[PATCH 7/8] sd: Permit merged discard requests
[PATCH 8/8] sd: Implement support for WRITE SAME
