The new Kconfig option to build "staging" drivers (code in
drivers/staging/) is seen in all except three architectures (arm, h8300,
cris), because in these cases arch/$ARCH/Kconfig does NOT source
drivers/Kconfig.
This patch adds the source "drivers/staging/Kconfig" to
arch/$ARCH/Kconfig for these three exceptional cases.
Supply dm_add_exception as a callback to the read_metadata function.
Add a status function ready for a later patch and name the functions
consistently.

dm snapshot: separate out exception store interface
Pull structures that bridge the gap between snapshot and

dm: add name and uuid to sysfs
Implement simple read-only sysfs entry for device-mapper block device.
This patch adds a simple sysfs directory named "dm" under block device
properties and implements
- name attribute (string containing mapped device name)
- uuid attribute (string containing UUID, or empty string if not set)
The kobject is embedded in mapped_device struct, so no additional
memory allocation is needed for initializing sysfs entry.
During the processing of sysfs attribute we need to lock mapped device
which is done by a new function dm_get_from_kobj, which returns the md
associated with kobject and increases the usage count.
Each 'show attribute' function is responsible for its own locking.

dm table: rework reference counting
Rework table reference counting.
The existing code uses a reference counter. When the last reference is
dropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called.
Table reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other
kernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all).
If the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table
destructor is called from almost random kernel code.
This leads to various problems:
* dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the
destructor, which calls some sleeping function.
* the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the
same process.
* stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table
constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful
return from "dmsetup remove". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing
of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers.
The patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be
called only at predetermined places.
The table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device->map
or hash_cell->new_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted
in table->holders. A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions
is used for table creation/destruction.
Temporary references from the other code increase table->holders. A pair
of dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it.
When the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table->holders to
reach 0. Then, we call the table destructor. We use active waiting with
msleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years)
and removing the device isn't performance-critical task: the user doesn't
care if it takes one tick more or not.
This way, the destructor is called only at specific points
(dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy
destruction can't happen.
Finally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested().
