[dm-devel] [PATCH v2] dm mpath: maintain reference count for underlying devices

When processing a request, DM-mpath's map_io() set the cloned request's
request_queue to the appropriate underlying device's request_queue
without getting a reference on that request_queue.
DM-mpath now maintains a reference count on the underlying devices'
request_queue. This change wasn't motivated by a specific report but
code, like blk_insert_cloned_request(), will access the request_queue
with the understanding that the request_queue is valid.
