2005-07-12[PATCH] device-mapper multipath: Avoid possible suspension deadlockAlasdair G Kergon
To avoid deadlock when suspending a multipath device after all its paths have failed, stop queueing any I/O that is about to fail *before* calling freeze_bdev instead of after. Instead of setting a multipath 'suspended' flag which would have to be reset if an error occurs during the process, save the previous queueing state and leave userspace to restore if it wishes.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
