[PATCH v4 03/13] dm exception store: add snapshot-merge specific methods

From: Mike Snitzer
Date: Fri Nov 20 2009 - 15:30:08 EST


From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>

prepare_merge: returns the last chunk in the variables passed by reference.
The return value is the number of consecutive chunks.
commit_merge: permanently removes 'n' chunks from the exception store.
'n' is less or equal that the number returned by prepare_merge.

If the caller wishes, it can do the optimization of merging several consecutive
chunks at once. If it doesn't want to do this optimization, it just calls
commit_merge with n == 1.
