Could you delete dm_shadow[] in a follow on patch.

How I review these sorts of patches is that:
1) Ignore deleted variables. If those are used then it will cause a
compile problem so I don't worry about it.

2) Verify that when we delete initialization, then we also delete the
variable. In this case we deleted the initialization of dm_shadow[]
but not the variable itself, so I wondered if we were using
unitialized data. It turns out that it was just an oversight.

Reviewing these means a lot of searching, for each variable. Next time
if the patch were split up more it would make it a bit easier.

regards,
dan carpenter
