dm: remove dm_request loop
Remove queue_io return value and a loop in dm_request. IO may be submitted to a worker thread with queue_io(). queue_io() sets DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD so that all further IO is queued for the thread. When the thread finishes its work, it clears DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD and from this point on, requests are submitted from dm_request again. This will be used for processing barriers. Remove the loop in dm_request. queue_io() can submit I/Os to the worker thread even if DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD was not set.
