    dm - get rid of excessive locking and redundancy
    
     * Just use dev->si_drv1 for the strategy, disk ioctl and dump as the
       underlying device and 'dmv' is guaranteed not to go away. Keep the
       locked approach (dm_dev_lookup) for open, close, and mapper ioctls to
       ensure that we never rip out any node that's still in use.
    
     * This eliminates exclusive locking in the IO path, which should
       improve performance.
