Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer:
- Two queue_limits stacking fixes: disable discards if underlying
driver does. And propagate BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES to fix sporadic
checksum errors.
- Fix that reverts a DM core limit that wasn't needed given that
dm-crypt was already updated to impose an equivalent limit.
- Fix dm-init to properly establish 'const' for __initconst array.
- Fix deadlock in DM integrity target that occurs when overlapping IO
is being issued to it. And two smaller fixes to the DM integrity
target.

dm init: fix const confusion for dm_allowed_targets array
dm integrity: make dm_integrity_init and dm_integrity_exit static

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
