The author has found a number of problems with the current version
of this driver in the current kernel, and is reworking it to get
things working again.  Because of that, it would be better to remove
the driver now and add it back in a future kernel release.

-         Cowloop is a "copy-on-write" pseudo block driver. It can be
-         stacked on top of a "real" block driver, and catches all write
-         operations on their way from the file systems layer above to
-         the real driver below, effectively shielding the lower driver
-         from those write accesses. The requests are then diverted to
-         an ordinary file, located somewhere else (configurable). Later
-         read requests are checked to see whether they can be serviced
-         by the "real" block driver below, or must be pulled in from
-         the diverted location. More information and userspace tools to
-         use the driver are on the project's website

-**       COWLOOP block device driver (2.6 kernel compliant)
-** =======================================================================
-** Read-write loop-driver with copy-on-write functionality.
-**
-** Synopsis:
-**
-**     modprobe cowloop [maxcows=..] [rdofile=..... cowfile=.... [option=r]]
-**
-** Definition of number of configured cowdevices:
-**   maxcows=  number of configured cowdevices (default: 16)
-** (do not confuse this with MAXCOWS: absolute maximum as compiled)
-**
-** One pair of filenames can be supplied during insmod/modprobe to open
-** the first cowdevice:
-**   rdofile=  read-only file (or filesystem)
-**   cowfile=  storage-space for modified blocks of read-only file(system)
-**   option=r  repair cowfile automatically if it appears to be dirty
-**
-** Other cowdevices can be activated via the command "cowdev"
-** whenever the cowloop-driver is loaded.
-**
-** The read-only file may be of type 'regular' or 'block-device'.
-**
-** The cowfile must be of type 'regular'.
-** If an existing regular file is used as cowfile, its contents will be
-** used again for the current read-only file. When the cowfile has not been
-** closed properly during a previous session (i.e. rmmod cowloop), the
-** cowloop-driver refuses to open it unless the parameter "option=r" is
-** specified.
-**
-** Layout of cowfile:
-**
-**     +-----------------------------+
-**     |       cow head block        |   MAPUNIT bytes
-**     |-----------------------------|
-**     |                             |   MAPUNIT bytes
-**     |---                       ---|
-**     |                             |   MAPUNIT bytes
-**     |---                       ---|
-**     |      used-block bitmap      |   MAPUNIT bytes
-**     |-----------------------------|
-**     |  gap to align start-offset  |
-**     |        to 4K multiple       |
-**     |-----------------------------|  <---- start-offset cow blocks
-**     |                             |
-**      |    written cow blocks       |   MAPUNIT bytes
-**      |          .....              |
-**
-**     cowhead block:
-**       - contains general info about the rdofile which is related
-**         to this cowfile
-**
-**     used-block bitmap:
-**       - contains one bit per block with a size of MAPUNIT bytes
-**       - bit-value '1' = block has been written on cow
-**                   '0' = block unused on cow
-**       - total bitmap rounded to multiples of MAPUNIT

-** Major modifications:
-**
-**     200405  Ported to kernel-version 2.6            Hendrik-Jan Thomassen
-**     200405  Added cowhead to cowfile to garantee
-**             consistency with read-only file         Gerlof Langeveld
-**     200405  Postponed flushing of bitmaps to improve
-**             performance.                            Gerlof Langeveld
-**     200405  Inline recovery for dirty cowfiles.     Gerlof Langeveld
-**     200502  Redesign to support more cowdevices.    Gerlof Langeveld
-**     200502  Support devices/file > 2 Gbytes.        Gerlof Langeveld
-**     200507  Check for free space to expand cowfile. Gerlof Langeveld
-**     200902  Upgrade for kernel 2.6.28               Hendrik-Jan Thomassen
-**
-** Inspired by
-**    loop.c  by Theodore Ts'o and
-**    cloop.c by Paul `Rusty' Russell & Klaus Knopper.
-**
-** Design-considerations:
-**
-**   For the first experiments with the cowloop-driver, the request-queue
-**   made use of the do_generic_file_read() which worked fine except
-**   in combination with the cloop-driver; that combination
-**   resulted in a non-interruptible hangup of the system during
-**   heavy load. Other experiments using the `make_request' interface also
-**   resulted in unpredictable system hangups (with proper use of spinlocks).
-**
-**   To overcome these problems, the cowloop-driver starts a kernel-thread
-**   for every active cowdevice.
-**   All read- and write-request on the read-only file and copy-on-write file
-**   are handled in the context of that thread.
-**   A scheme has been designed to wakeup the kernel-thread as
-**   soon as I/O-requests are available in the request-queue; this thread
-**   handles the requests one-by-one by calling the proper read- or
-**   write-function related to the open read-only file or copy-on-write file.
-**   When all pending requests have been handled, the kernel-thread goes
-**   back to sleep-state.
-**   This approach requires some additional context-switches; however the
-**   performance loss during heavy I/O is less than 3%.
