Handle any error from blk_ksm_register() in the callers. Previously,
the callers ignored the return value because blk_ksm_register() wouldn't
fail as long as the request_queue didn't have integrity support too, but
as this is no longer the case, it's safer for the callers to just handle
the return value appropriately.

This comment seems to be in the wrong place, as dm_update_keyslot_manager()
already assumes that the crypto capabilities are either staying the same or
expanding.  This isn't something new that this WARN_ON() introduces.

I think this explanation should go in dm_table_construct_keyslot_manager()
instead, as that is where the new set of crypto capabilities is built.
I.e. in dm_table_construct_keyslot_manager() we should explain how we "know"
that the new set will really be equal or greater.
