[RFC][PATCH] device mapper: Add builtin function dm_get_status()

[Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com>]

Users of the device mapper driver might want to obtain a device status,
with status types defined in the status_type_t enumerator.

If a function to get the status is exported by the device mapper, when
compiled as a module, it is not suitable to use by callers compiled builtin
in the kernel.

Introduce the real function to get the status, _dm_get_status(), in the
device mapper module, and add the stub dm_get_status() in dm-builtin.c, so
that it can be invoked by builtin callers.

The stub calls the real function if the device mapper is compiled builtin
or the module has been loaded. Calls to the real function are safely
disabled if the module is unloaded. The race condition is avoided by
incrementing the reference count of the module.

_dm_get_status() invokes the status() method for each device mapper table,
which writes a string to the supplied buffer as output. The buffer might
contain multiple strings concatenated together. If there is not enough
space available, the string is truncated and a termination character is put
at the end.
