dm persistent data: handle space map checker creation failure
commit 62662303e7f590fdfbb0070ab820a0ad4267c119 upstream.
If CONFIG_DM_DEBUG_SPACE_MAPS is enabled and dm_sm_checker_create()
fails, dm_tm_create_internal() would still return success even though it
cleaned up all resources it was supposed to have created. This will
lead to a kernel crash:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC

Fix the space map checker code to return an appropriate ERR_PTR and have
dm_sm_disk_create() and dm_tm_create_internal() check for it with
IS_ERR.

drivers/md: change module.h -> export.h in persistent-data/dm-*
For the files which are not themselves modular, we can change
them to include only the smaller export.h since all they are
doing is looking for EXPORT_SYMBOL.

dm: add persistent data library
The persistent-data library offers a re-usable framework for the storage
and management of on-disk metadata in device-mapper targets.
It's used by the thin-provisioning target in the next patch and in an
upcoming hierarchical storage target.
For further information, please read
Documentation/device-mapper/persistent-data.txt
