devicemapper: Add helper functions to allow deferred device removal

A lot of time device mapper devices leak across mount namespace which docker
does not know about and when docker tries to deactivate/delete device,
operation fails as device is open in some mount namespace.

Create a mechanism where one can defer the device deactivation/deletion
so that docker operation does not fail and device automatically goes
away when last reference to it is dropped.
