Jeff Mahoney fba9f90e56 [PATCH] dm: add DMF_FREEING ...

There is a chicken and egg problem between the block layer and dm in which the
gendisk associated with a mapping keeps a reference-less pointer to the
mapped_device.

This patch uses a new flag DMF_FREEING to indicate when the mapped_device is
no longer valid.  This is checked to prevent any attempt to open the device
from succeeding while the device is being destroyed.

[akpm: too late for 2.6.17 - suitable for 2.6.17.x after it has settled]
