dm: dec_pending needs locking to save error value
Multiple instances of dec_pending() can run concurrently so a lock is needed when it saves the first error code. I have never experienced actual problem without locking and just found this during code inspection while implementing the barrier support patch for request-based dm. This patch adds the locking. I've done compile, boot and basic I/O testings.
