  dm: fix missed error code if .end_io isn't implemented by target_type (2014-12-17 12:31:13 -0500)

Please pull, thanks.
Mike

----------------------------------------------------------------
3 stable fixes and 1 fix for a regression introduced during 3.19 merge:

- Fix inability to discard used space when the thin-pool target is in
  out-of-data-space mode and also transition the thin-pool back to write
  mode once free space is made available.

- Fix DM core bio-based end_io bug that prevented proper post-processing
  of the error code returned from the block layer.

- Fix crash in DM thin-pool due to thin device being added to the pool's
  active_thins list before properly initializing the thin device's
  refcount.
