Checks added for DM device names to allow only names < DM_NAME_LEN, otherwise a part of
lengthy name would be silently ignored and could cause confusion while using dmsetup.
Also, the name should not contain '/' character, if it is used in context of creating
a new device or renaming the existing one (because we do not consider full path to devices,
they do not exist in filesystem yet) and appropriate error messages are shown.
