'dmsetup remove_all' actually depends on sync bdev release since dm_lock_for_deletion() may return -EBUSY if the open count is > 0, and the open count is dropped in dm_blk_close(). So if dm_blk_close() is delayed because of fput(), this device mapper device is skipped in remove_all, and cause regression. Fix the issue by using __fput_sync().
