Subject: [PATCH 3.10 94/97] dm thin: fix the error path for the thin device constructor

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@...hat.com>

commit 1acacc0784aab45627b6009e0e9224886279ac0b upstream.

dm_pool_close_thin_device() must be called if dm_set_target_max_io_len()
fails in thin_ctr().  Otherwise __pool_destroy() will fail because the
pool will still have an open thin device:

 device-mapper: thin metadata: attempt to close pmd when 1 device(s) are still open
 device-mapper: thin: __pool_destroy: dm_pool_metadata_close() failed.

Also, must establish error code if failing thin_ctr() because the pool
is in fail_io mode.
