This patch just removes an unnecessary warning:
kobject: 'dm': does not have a release() function,
it is broken and must be fixed.
The kobject is embedded in mapped device struct, so
code does not need to release memory explicitly here.

Fix a reported deadlock if there are still unprocessed multipath events
on a device that is being removed.
_hash_lock is held during dev_remove while trying to send the
outstanding events. Sending the events requests the _hash_lock
again in dm_copy_name_and_uuid.
This patch introduces a separate lock around regions that modify the
link to the hash table (dm_set_mdptr) or the name or uuid so that
dm_copy_name_and_uuid no longer needs _hash_lock.
Additionally, dm_copy_name_and_uuid can only be called if md exists
so we can drop the dm_get() and dm_put() which can lead to a BUG()
while md is being freed.
The deadlock:

the description in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt of the
procs_running entry in /proc/stat is confusing (according to that
description, it looks as if procs_running could only be a number
between 0 and the number of CPUs).
Changed it to a more accurate description in the patch attached.
