dm thin: irqsave must always be used with the pool->lock spinlock
Commit c140e1c4 ("dm thin: use per thin device deferred bio lists") incorrectly stopped disabling irqs when taking the pool's spinlock. Irqs must be disabled when taking the pool's spinlock otherwise a thread could spin_lock(), then get interrupted to service thin_endio() in interrupt context, which would then deadlock in spin_lock_irqsave().
