Block fixes for 4.6-rc
Hi Linus,
A few fixes for the current series. This pull request contains:
- Two fixes for NVMe. One fixes a reset race that can be triggered by repeated insert/removal of the module. The other fixes an issue on some platforms, where we get probe timeouts since legacy interrupts isn't working. This used not to be a problem since we had the worker thread poll for completions, but since that was killed off, it means those poor souls can't successfully probe their NVMe device. Use a proper IRQ check and probe (msi-x -> msi ->legacy), like most other drivers to work around this. Both from Keith.
- A loop corruption issue with offset in iters, from Ming Lei.
- A fix for not having the partition stat per cpu ref count initialized before sending out the KOBJ_ADD, which could cause user space to access the counter prior to initialization. Also from Ming Lei.
- A fix for using the wrong congestion state, from Kaixu Xia.
Please pull!
