dm raid1: handle write failures

This patch gives mirror the ability to handle device failures
during normal write operations.

The 'write_callback' function is called when a write completes.
If all the writes failed or succeeded, we report failure or
success respectively.  If some of the writes failed, we call
fail_mirror; which increments the error count for the device, notes
the type of error encountered (DM_RAID1_WRITE_ERROR),  and
selects a new primary (if necessary).  Note that the primary
device can never change while the mirror is not in-sync (IOW,
while recovery is happening.)  This means that the scenario
where a failed write changes the primary and gives
recovery_complete a chance to misread the primary never happens.
The fact that the primary can change has necessitated the change
to the default_mirror field.  We need to protect against reading
garbage while the primary changes.  We then add the bio to a new
list in the mirror set, 'failures'.  For every bio in the 'failures'
list, we call a new function, '__bio_mark_nosync', where we mark
the region 'not-in-sync' in the log and properly set the region
state as, RH_NOSYNC.  Userspace must also be notified of the
failure.  This is done by 'raising an event' (dm_table_event()).
If fail_mirror is called in process context the event can be raised
right away.  If in interrupt context, the event is deferred to the
kmirrord thread - which raises the event if 'event_waiting' is set.

Backwards compatibility is maintained by ignoring errors if
the DM_FEATURES_HANDLE_ERRORS flag is not present.
