  dm: fix dm_rq_target_io leak on faults with .request_fn DM w/ blk-mq paths (2016-02-21 20:27:50 -0500)

Please pull, thanks.
Mike

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fix a 112 byte leak for each IO request that is requeued while DM
multipath is handling faults due to path failures.  This leak does not
happen if blk-mq DM multipath is used.  It only occurs if .request_fn DM
multipath is stacked ontop of blk-mq paths (e.g. scsi-mq devices).
