[PATCH] dm: support ioctls on mapped devices: fix with fake file

[Alasdair G Kergon]

[This applies after all the current dm patches.]


From: Milan Broz <mbroz@xxxxxxxxxx>

The new ioctl code passes the wrong file pointer to the underlying device.
No file pointer is available so make a temporary fake one.
