#1611271 — [PATCH] dm: move dm_table_destroy() to same header as dm_table_create()

If anyone is going to use dm_table_create(), they probably should be
able to use dm_table_destroy() too. Move the dm_table_destroy()
definition outside the private header, near dm_table_create()

Not seeing why we need dm_table_create() exposed.  So I think you went
the wrong way with this.  Unless you have an actual need, I'd prefer to
see dm_table_create() moved from include/linux/device-mapper.h to
drivers/md/dm.h

We've been carrying code in our ChromeOS kernel to parse a cmdline arg
for setting up early DM maps -- e.g., a dm-verity rootfs without using
an initramfs. We currently use dm_table_create() from init/*.c (and we
*should* be using dm_table_destroy() in the error paths). So I'm
certainly not going to send the patch to do the reverse :)

Enric is working on cleaning up this work to send here, so if you don't
want to see this patch now, you may well see it later.

As Brian told you we have a use case that uses the dm_table_create and others
from init/*.c, I expect have a first patches during this week, if it's ok I'll
include this patch in my patchset so you have the overall of what we are talking
about.

Cheers,
 Enric
