Mikulas Patocka 60c856c8e2 dm snapshot: fix register_snapshot deadlock
register_snapshot() performs a GFP_KERNEL allocation while holding
_origins_lock for write, but that could write out dirty pages onto a
device that attempts to acquire _origins_lock for read, resulting in
deadlock.

So move the allocation up before taking the lock.

This path is not performance-critical, so it doesn't matter that we
allocate memory and free it if we find that we won't need it.
