Such nodes could already be created by importing a tarball to a container; now
they can be created from within the container itself.
This gives non-privileged containers the mknod kernel capability, and modifies
their cgroup settings to allow creation of *any* node, not just whitelisted
ones. Use of such nodes is still controlled by the existing cgroup whitelist.

As explained in https://github.com/dotcloud/docker/issues/4979
--volumes-from fails with ENOFILE errors.
This is because the code tries to look at the "from" volume without
ensuring that it is mounted yet. We fix this by mounting the containers
before stating in it.
Also includes a regression test.

This adds a bit of documentation for the `-a` flag for docker run.

We currently drop the global lock while holding a per-device lock when
waiting for device removal, and then we re-aquire it when the sleep is done.
This is causing a AB-BA deadlock if anyone at the same time tries to do any
operation on that device like this:
thread A: thread B
grabs global lock
grabs device lock
releases global lock
sleeps
grabs global lock
blocks on device lock
wakes up
blocks on global lock
To trigger this you can for instance do:
ID=`docker run -d fedora sleep 5`
cd /var/lib/docker/devicemapper/mnt/$ID
docker wait $ID
docker rm $ID &
docker rm $ID
The unmount will fail due to the mount being busy thus causing the
timeout and the second rm will then trigger the deadlock.
We fix this by adding a lock ordering such that the device locks
are always grabbed before the global lock. This is safe since the
device lookups now have a separate lock.

Currently access to the Devices map is serialized by the main
DeviceSet lock, but we need to access it outside that lock, so we
add a separate lock for this and grab that everywhere we modify
or read the map.

This centralizes the lookup of devices so it is only done in one place.
This will be needed later when we change the locking for it.

We already have the info in most cases, no need to look this up multiple times.

All the callers already have the info, no need for an extra lookup.

There is no need to look this up again, we have it already in all callers.

Especially but not limited to:
- make BINDDIR= ... - for when you don't want a bind mount at all
- make DOCSPORT=9000 docs - for when you want a not-8000 docs port
- when we can't determine a branch name, we don't try to "docker build -t docker: ." anymore - we just "docker build -t docker ." (thus allowing Docker to assume ":latest")
