The target use-case are systems with large number of multi-path
devices or systems with duplicate (copied) filesystems.
The feature is flexible enough to use arbitrary column (for example
WWM or UUID, ...) as de-duplication key.
For example tree with multi-path devices sd{c,d,e,f}
./lsblk

or "RI".

Now lsblk uses --list when --sort <column> is specified. This patch
allows to specify --tree to overwrite this default behavior add to
force tree-like output. In this case tree branches are sorted by the
<column>.

In the majority of pages, pathnames are formatted as Italic,
which is the norm. However, there are several cases where they
are formatted as bold. This patch fixes a number of those
exceptions.

This patch does only the following:
* Order SEE ALSO entries first by section name, then alphabetically
within section
* Adds one or two missing commas in SEE ALSO lists
* Removes one or two periods that were (inconsistently) used
at the end of SEE ALSO lists.

This env.variable forces libsmartcols to use visible padding chars.
The standard debug has to be enabled (to minimize overhead for
non-debug execution).
For example:

This implementation allow to sort output by arbitrary output column.
Note that output is always converted to human readable strings, but
sort functions in many cases work with original data (stored as
private data to cells by scols_cell_set_userdata()).

Simple command line for gathering information as many as possible is
useful when understanding a system, especially when trouble shooting.
This patch introduces -O option which enables all available columns.

The lsblk depends on /sys/dev/block/ symlinks, which appeared in
kernel 2.6.27. Users with old, or non-sysfs configured, kernel
got ealier message
lsblk: md0: failed to initialize sysfs handler
lsblk: xvda: failed to initialize sysfs handler
[...]
that I found a little too difficult to understand. This patch will
change the message to
lsblk: failed to access sysfs directory: /sys/dev/block: No such file or directory
and informs in manual page what could be reason to that.

I got tired of poking around in sysfs to find the discard topology.
Here's a patch against lsblk that adds a -D option to present this
