Changes Prior to this release
- Don't #include linux/blkpg.h as that isn't safe. Just
include the content literally.
- Reduce maximum bitmap usage when working with bitmap files,
so that a only single-page allocations are made, even on
64bit hosts with 4K pages.
Changes Prior to 2.5.4 release
- When creating devices in /dev/md/ create matching symlinks
