dm: fix dropped return code from dm_get_bdev_for_ioctl
dm_get_bdev_for_ioctl()'s return of 0 or 1 must be the result from prepare_ioctl (1 means the ioctl was issued to a partition, 0 means it wasn't). Unfortunately commit 519049af ("dm: use blkdev_get rather than bdgrab when issuing pass-through ioctl") reused the variable 'r' to store the return from blkdev_get() that follows prepare_ioctl() -- whereby dropping prepare_ioctl()'s result on the floor. This can lead to an ioctl or persistent reservation being issued to a partition going unnoticed, which implies the extra permission check for CAP_SYS_RAWIO is skipped. Fix this by using a different variable to store blkdev_get()'s return.
