dm ioctl: release _hash_lock between devices in remove_all

Browse Source 
This patch changes dm_hash_remove_all() to release _hash_lock when
removing a device.  After removing the device, dm_hash_remove_all()
takes _hash_lock and searches the hash from scratch again.

This patch is a preparation for the next patch, which changes device
deletion code to wait for md reference to be 0.  Without this patch,
the wait in the next patch may cause AB-BA deadlock:
  CPU0                                CPU1

    <in the md deletion code>
      <wait for md->holders to be 0>
