Revert "dm: requeue IO if mapping table not yet available"
This reverts commit fa247089de9936a46e290d4724cb5f0b845600f5. The following sequence of commands causes a livelock - there will be workqueue process looping and consuming 100% CPU: dmsetup create --notable test truncate -s 1MiB testdata losetup /dev/loop0 testdata dmsetup load test --table '0 2048 linear /dev/loop0 0' dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/dm-0 bs=16k count=1 conv=fdatasync The livelock is caused by the commit fa247089de99. The commit claims that it fixes a race condition, however, it is unknown what the actual race condition is and what program is involved in the race condition. When the inactive table is loaded, the nodes /dev/dm-0 and /sys/block/dm-0 are created. /dev/dm-0 has zero size at this point. When the device is suspended and resumed, the nodes /dev/mapper/test and /dev/disk/* are created. If some program opens a block device before it is created by dmsetup or lvm, the program is buggy, so dm could just report an error as it used to do before.
