[PATCH v4.19] dm: fix mempool NULL pointer race when completing IO This is backport of the patch d208b89401e0 ("dm: fix mempool NULL pointer race when completing IO") for the kernel 4.9. The bugs fixed by this patch can cause random crashing when reloading dm table, so it is eligible for stable backport.
