dm ioctl: remove unnecessary check when using dm_get_mdptr()
__hash_remove() removes hash_cell with _hash_lock locked, so acquiring _hash_lock can guarantee no-NULL hc returned from dm_get_mdptr() must have not been removed and hc->md must still be md. __hash_remove() also acquires dm_hash_cells_mutex before setting mdptr as NULL. So in dm_copy_name_and_uuid(), after acquiring dm_hash_cells_mutex and ensuring returned hc is not NULL, the returned hc must still be alive and hc->md must still be md. Remove the unnecessary hc->md != md checks when using dm_get_mdptr() with _hash_lock or dm_hash_cells_mutex acquired.
