Merge branch 'cfq-ioc-share' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block

* 'cfq-ioc-share' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block:
  cfq-iosched: kill some big inlines
  cfq-iosched: relax IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE restrictions
  kernel: add CLONE_IO to specifically request sharing of IO contexts
  io_context sharing - anticipatory changes
  block: cfq: make the io contect sharing lockless
  io_context sharing - cfq changes
  io context sharing: preliminary support
  ioprio: move io priority from task_struct to io_context
