Mike Snitzer 7da444af10 dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ON
commit ba1cbad93d upstream.

The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to
dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7 ("dm: implement
REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly
drastic (but simple) response to this situation.

I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think
it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone
and original request with -EIO.

map_request() will assign the valid target returned by
dm_table_find_target to tio->ti.  But when the target
isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't
called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().
