Note that dm-emc.c also would need to pre-allocate it's requests, but
doesn't right now :/

Pre-allocating the requests sucks: Either we pre-allocate for _every_
path we might potentially need to send the request down on, or fix up
the request for the path we sent it down on (which would require us to
use internal knowledge about the req structs we're not supposed to
have).

Good solutions solicited ;-)
