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().
