dm-snapshot.patch:
	Extra patch for DM snapshot code. Allows origin devices to be correctly
	activated before their snapshot devices. Required if you want to use
	snapshots with EVMS.

dm-snapshot-VFS.patch:
	Missing portion of
	device-mapper-1.00.xx/patches/linux-2.4.20-VFS-lock.patch. This patch
	is only necessary when using a 2.4.20 kernel.

dm-mpath.patch
	Patch to provide a Multipath target for Device-Mapper. Required if you
	have multiple physical paths to a single device that you want to
	consolidate into a single volume.

dm-bbr.patch:
	Patch to provide a Bad-Block-Relocation target for Device-Mapper.
	Required if you want to use BBR devices.

jfs.patch
	Patch to allow JFS to properly update its superblock during a
	write_super_lockfs(). Required if you intend to take snapshots of
	volumes with JFS filesystems. This patch is only necessary when using
	a 2.4.20 or 2.4.21 kernel. The patch was merged into stock 2.4.22
	kernel.

	Patch to correctly read and write the MD superblock. This patch is
	only necessary on 2.4.20 and earlier kernels.

md-raid.patch:
	Patch to allow RAID-1 and RAID-5 devices to properly shutdown at
	reboot time. Required for Software-RAID users, unless you want your
	RAID arrays to resync on each reboot. :) This patch is only necessary
	on 2.4.21 and earlier kernels.

vfs-lock-xfs.patch
	An extra patch for users with an XFS-enabled 2.4.21 or earlier kernel.
	This patch fixes the DQUOT_SYNC rename bug, and should be applied after
	the regular VFS-lock patch.
