dm: fix NULL pointer when clone_and_map_rq returns !DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED



When stacking request-based DM on blk_mq device, request cloning and
remapping are done in a single call to target's clone_and_map_rq().
The clone is allocated and valid only if clone_and_map_rq() returns
DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED.

The "IS_ERR(clone)" check in map_request() does not cover all the
!DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED cases that are possible (E.g. if underlying devices
are not ready or unavailable, clone_and_map_rq() may return
DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE without ever having established an ERR_PTR).  Fix this
by explicitly checking for a return that is not DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED in
map_request().

Without this fix, DM core may call setup_clone() for a NULL clone
and oops like this:
