Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] blk-snap - snapshots and change-tracking for block devices

> I do not think anybody will review such a huge patch.
Yes, it will be a lot of work. But I hope that the code architecture
and splitting entities into separate files will help.
If someone can advise how to divide a module into a chain of patches,
I will be happy. I do not dare to divide it without losing meaning.
