Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block:
  loop: export module parameters
  block: export blk_{get,put}_queue()
  block: remove unused variable in bio_attempt_front_merge()
  block: always allocate genhd->ev if check_events is implemented
  brd: export module parameters
  brd: fix comment on initial device creation
  brd: handle on-demand devices correctly
  brd: limit 'max_part' module param to DISK_MAX_PARTS
  brd: get rid of unused members from struct brd_device
  block: fix oops on !disk->queue and sysfs discard alignment display
