dm ioctl: Refuse to create device named "." or ".." 

Using either of these is going to greatly confuse userspace, as they are
not valid symlink names and so creating the usual /dev/mapper/NAME
symlink will not be possible.  As creating a device with either of these
names is almost certainly a userspace bug, just error out.
