[PATCH 5.5 147/367] dm: fix potential for q->make_request_fn NULL pointer

From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

commit 47ace7e012b9f7ad71d43ac9063d335ea3d6820b upstream.

Move blk_queue_make_request() to dm.c:alloc_dev() so that
q->make_request_fn is never NULL during the lifetime of a DM device
(even one that is created without a DM table).

Otherwise generic_make_request() will crash simply by doing:
dmsetup create -n test
mount /dev/dm-N /mnt

While at it, move ->congested_data initialization out of
dm.c:alloc_dev() and into the bio-based specific init method.
