Subject: dm log userspace: group clear and mark requests
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=085ae0651b2791f3a430ddb76da92925b9952e13;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

dm log userspace: group clear and mark requests

Allow the device-mapper log's 'mark' and 'clear' requests to be
grouped and processed in a batch.  This can significantly reduce the
amount of traffic going between the kernel and userspace (where the
processing daemon resides).
