One more typo fix

* Updated the upstart jobs in the event-driven folder. These are not final
  yet. But should work. In general, when a root device changes, the /etc/fstab
  should be updated for now as mountall starts only in place of local. So you
  cant use the mntctl change-mount-device option before that. So following is
  needed:
  a. Read the conf.d to read the changed root. Modify create-fstab script to
     read the changed root from here.
* Updated an upstart job to exit when root device is mounted.
* Added the changes to mkinitramfs and update-initramfs

Add support for mounting the btrfs subvolume "@" to access a btrfs
formatted rootfs, when the subvolume is available.

* details/plugin.c: On every key stroke, the "details" plugin in plymouth
  clears only the current line before overwriting it with the password
  prompt. If the prompt is multilined then the last line ends up being
  overwritten but the previous lines are repeated. Re-printing only the
  last line of the password prompt on every keystroke. (LP:#566818)
* details/plugin.c: Removed the explicit printing of ':'. Expected to be a
  part of the prompt.

debian/initramfs/cryptroot-script: At boot the user passsword for a
crypted device is captured by plymouth when it is available. On every
key stroke, the "details" plugin in plymouth clears only the current line
before overwriting it with the password prompt. If the prompt is
multilined then the last line ends up being overwritten but the previous
lines are repeated. Changing the password prompt string to be single lined
when plymouth is available. (LP:#566818)

In natty mountall should have the timeout support

Author: Surbhi Palande
Revision Date: 2011-04-13 11:38:12 UTC

Fixed two errors found while browsing the code: 1) find_mount("/") returns
NULL when / is not found, so cannot access root->mounted. 2) the
information message about the dev_wait_timeout should be printed after
dev_wait_timeout is initialized properly.

mdadm udev rule incrementally adds mdadm member when detected. Starting
such an array in degraded mode is possible by mdadm -IRs. Using mdadm -ARs
without stopping the array first does nothing when no mdarray-unassociated
device is available. Using mdadm -IRs to start a previously partially
assembled array through incremental mode. Keeping the mdadm -ARs for
assembling arrays which were for some reason not assembled through
incremental mode (i.e through mdadm's udev rule). (LP: #728435)

Added a command line option dev-wait-time which specifies the time that
mountall needs to wait for a device to get ready. The default value for the
wait is 30 seconds. This command line option allows a user to change this
wait period. The legal values are between 1 sec to 2147483647

bzr repository initialized. Has mdadm auto-assembly related fixes

Author: Surbhi Palande
Revision Date: 2010-10-19 14:55:12 UTC

mdadm autoassembly works by matching hostname with what is stored in the
uuid bits of the array. So hostname needs to be set at boot time for the
rootfs to be mounted, when the rootfs is on an array which has to be
auto-assembled. Added support for setting the hostname. (LP: #330399)

debian/initramfs/cryptroot-hook: input the correct /dev/mapper based
source in the conf/conf.d/cryptroot in the initramfs. This is what was
originally intended before source was UUID based. This removes the
erroneous error message seen when the crypted volume group is not yet
active at boot time.

Fixed locking

When lockf is used for locking, the lock is released when you close the file.
So, when the file is closed, the process waiting for a lock gets it, but
thereafter the file is unlinked. So when another process asks for a lock on
the same file, it too gets the lock on a new file that it creates. Hence we
have two processes having a lock, one process with a lock on the stale file
and the other on a fresh new one. This breaks our locking scheme. So we
changed the locking to flock() and check if the file is stale using the stat()
and by unlinking the file before closing.
