From: Luo Meng <luomeng12 at huawei.com>

If dm_get_device() create dd in multipath_message(),
and then call table_deps() after dm_put_table_device(),
it will lead to concurrency UAF bugs.

One of the concurrency UAF can be shown as below:

         (USE)                        |    (FREE)
                                      |  target_message
                                      |    multipath_message
                                      |      dm_put_device
                                      |        dm_put_table_device #
                                      |          kfree(td)  # table_device *td
ioctl # DM_TABLE_DEPS_CMD             |         ...
  table_deps                          |         ...
  dm_get_live_or_inactive_table       |         ...
    retrieve_dep                      |         ...
    list_for_each_entry               |         ...
      deps->dev[count++] =            |         ...
          huge_encode_dev             |         ...
          (dd->dm_dev->bdev->bd_dev)  |        list_del(&dd->list)
                                      |        kfree(dd) # dm_dev_internal

The root cause of UAF bugs is that find_device() failed in
dm_get_device() and will create dd and refcount set 1, kfree()
in dm_put_table() is not protected. When td, which there are
still pointers point to, is released, the concurrency UAF bug
will happen.

This patch add a flag to determine whether to create a new dd.
