Device mapper uses sscanf to convert arguments to numbers. The problem is that
the way we use it ignores additional unmatched characters in the scanned string.
For example, this `if (sscanf(string, "%d", &number) == 1)' will match a number,
but also it will match number with some garbage appended, like "123abc".
As a result, device mapper accepts garbage after some numbers. For example
the command `dmsetup create vg1-new --table "0 16384 linear 254:1bla 34816bla"'
will pass without an error.
This patch fixes all sscanf uses in device mapper. It appends "%c" with
a pointer to a dummy character variable to every sscanf statement.
The construct `if (sscanf(string, "%d%c", &number, &dummy) == 1)' succeeds
only if string is a null-terminated number (optionally preceded by some
whitespace characters). If there is some character appended after the number,
sscanf matches "%c", writes the character to the dummy variable and returns 2.
We check the return value for 1 and consequently reject numbers with some
garbage appended.

The following BUG is hit on the first read that is submitted to a dm
flakey test device while the device is "down" if the corrupt_bio_byte
feature wasn't requested when the device's table was loaded.
Example DM table that will hit this BUG:
0 2097152 flakey 8:0 2048 0 30
This bug was introduced by commit a3998799fb
(dm flakey: add corrupt_bio_byte feature) in v3.1-rc1.

A logical volume can map to just part of underlying physical volume.
In this case, it must be treated like a partition.

Add the ability to specify arbitrary feature flags when creating a
flakey target. This code uses the same target argument helpers that
the multipath target does.
Also remove the superfluous 'dm-flakey' prefixes from the error messages,
as they already contain the prefix 'flakey'.

This target is the same as the linear target except that it returns I/O
errors periodically. It's been found useful in simulating failing
devices for testing purposes.
I needed a dm target to do some failure testing on btrfs's raid code, and
Mike pointed me at this.
