Made on top of _name_read_lock patch. Found another place where the lock is not held correctly. This is an update to my previous patch [dmf_freeing_lock.patch] Description: There are places where the code checks for DMF_FREEING bit flag and conditionally calls dm_get(). This should be done under _minor_lock, otherwise there is no point in checking for the bit flag.
