Linus Torvalds 3f8476fe89 - Revert a request-based DM core change that caused IO latency to
increase and adversely impact both throughput and system load
 
 - Fix for a use after free bug in DM core's device cleanup
 
 - A couple DM btree removal fixes (used by dm-thinp)
 
 - A DM thinp fix for order-5 allocation failure
 
 - A DM thinp fix to not degrade to read-only metadata mode when in
   out-of-data-space mode for longer than the 'no_space_timeout'
 
 - Fix a long-standing oversight in both dm-thinp and dm-cache by
   now exporting 'needs_check' in status if it was set in metadata
 
 - Fix an embarrassing dm-cache busy-loop that caused worker threads to
   eat cpu even if no IO was actively being issued to the cache device
