[PATCH] dm: support ioctls on mapped devices
Extend the core device-mapper infrastructure to accept arbitrary ioctls on a
mapped device provided that it has exactly one target and it is capable of
supporting ioctls.
[We can't use unlocked_ioctl because we need 'inode': 'file' might be NULL.
Is it worth changing this?]
