H A Ddm-switch.c9d0eb0ab432aaa9160cf2675aee73b3900b9bc18 Thu Jul 11 00:41:19 CEST 2013 Jim Ramsay <jim_ramsay@dell.com> dm: add switch target

dm-switch is a new target that maps IO to underlying block devices
efficiently when there is a large number of fixed-sized address regions
but there is no simple pattern to allow for a compact mapping
representation such as dm-stripe.

Though we have developed this target for a specific storage device, Dell
EqualLogic, we have made an effort to keep it as general purpose as
possible in the hope that others may benefit.

Originally developed by Jim Ramsay. Simplified by Mikulas Patocka.
