[2.6.20.17 review 28/58] dm io: fix panic on large request

[Willy Tarreau]

Flush workqueue before releasing bioset and mopools in dm-crypt.  There can
be finished but not yet released request.

Call chain causing oops:
  run workqueue
    dec_pending
      bio_endio(...);
      	<remove device request - remove mempool>
      mempool_free(io, cc->io_pool);

This usually happens when cryptsetup create temporary
luks mapping in the beggining of crypt device activation.

When dm-core calls destructor crypt_dtr, no new request
are possible.
