dm: fix mempool NULL pointer race when completing IO
dm_io_dec_pending() calls end_io_acct() first and will then dec md
in-flight pending count. But if a task is swapping DM table at same
time this can result in a crash due to mempool->elements being NULL:
task1 task2
do_resume
->do_suspend
->dm_wait_for_completion
bio_endio
->clone_endio
->dm_io_dec_pending
->end_io_acct
->wakeup task1
->dm_swap_table
->__bind
->__bind_mempools
->bioset_exit
->mempool_exit
->free_io

Fix this by:
1) Establishing pointers to 'struct dm_io' members in
dm_io_dec_pending() so that they may be passed into end_io_acct()
_after_ free_io() is called.
2) Moving end_io_acct() after free_io().
