[PATCH] dm: map and endio return code clarification 

Tighten the use of return values from the target map and end_io functions.
Values of 2 and above are now explictly reserved for future use.  There are no
existing targets using such values.

The patch has no effect on existing behaviour.

o Reserve return values of 2 and above from target map functions.
  Any positive value currently indicates "mapping complete", but all
  existing drivers use the value 1.  We now make that a requirement
  so we can assign new meaning to higher values in future.

  The new definition of return values from target map functions is:
      < 0 : error
      = 0 : The target will handle the io (DM_MAPIO_SUBMITTED).
      = 1 : Mapping completed (DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED).
      > 1 : Reserved (undefined).  Previously this was the same as '= 1'.

o Reserve return values of 2 and above from target end_io functions
  for similar reasons.
  DM_ENDIO_INCOMPLETE is introduced for a return value of 1.

Test results:

  I have tested by using the multipath target.

  I/Os succeed when valid paths exist.

  I/Os are queued in the multipath target when there are no valid paths and
queue_if_no_path is set.

  I/Os fail when there are no valid paths and queue_if_no_path is not set.
