2015-04-15dm: add log writes targetJosef Bacik
Introduce a new target that is meant for file system developers to test file system integrity at particular points in the life of a file system. We capture all write requests and associated data and log them to a separate device for later replay. There is a userspace utility to do this replay. The idea behind this is to give file system developers a tool to verify that the file system is always consistent.
