dm: split request structure out from dm_rq_target_io structure

Browse source

Request-based DM support for blk-mq devices requires that
dm_rq_target_io structures not be allocated with an embedded request
structure.  The request-based DM target (e.g. dm-multipath) must
allocate the request from the blk-mq devices' request_queue using
blk_get_request().

The unfortunate side-effect of this change is old-style request-based DM
support will no longer use contiguous memory for the dm_rq_target_io and
request structures for each clone.
