Commit a63a5cf (dm: improve block integrity support) introduced a

two-phase initialization of a DM device's integrity profile.  This
patch avoids dereferencing a NULL 'template_disk' pointer in
blk_integrity_register() if there is an integrity profile mismatch in
dm_table_set_integrity().

This can occur if the integrity profiles for stacked devices in a DM
table are changed between the call to dm_table_prealloc_integrity() and
dm_table_set_integrity().
