The snapshot-merge target allows a snapshot to be merged back into the
snapshot's origin device.One anticipated use of snapshot merging is the rollback of filesystems
to back out problematic system upgrades.This patch adds snapshot-merge target management to both
dm_snapshot_init() and dm_snapshot_exit(). As an initial place-holder,
snapshot-merge is identical to the snapshot target. Documentation is
provided.Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka

I've recently added this documentation, Alasdair gave some corrections, and
here are some further corrections on top of his work (partly style issue,
partly a technical error due to different past experience, partly a note
which I've added - i.e. transient snapshots are lighter).Cc: Alasdair G Kergon

I've recently discovered the real functionality of device-mapper snapshots,
and since they are not well known, I've decided to write some docs for
them.Signed-off-by: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
