[dm-devel] dm: keep old table until after resume succeeded

Follow-up patch which moves the table destruction after the resume.
__unbind() becomes redundant when followed by __bind().

Alasdair


From: Alasdair G Kergon <agk at redhat.com>

When swapping a new table into place, retain the old table until 
its replacement is in place.

An old check for an empty table is removed because this is enforced
in populate_table().
