When an rbd image is mapped, a watch request is issued so that the client will get notified in the event the image header object changes. This is done using rbd_init_watch_dev(), which calls rbd_req_sync_watch(). rbd_init_watch_dev() is organized as a loop, arranging to re-issue the request after refreshing the header if -ERANGE ever gets returned. But the only way rbd_req_sync_watch() will return -ERANGE is if the CEPH_OSD_OP_WATCH operation returns that, which it will not. As a result, the whole looping structure and in fact the whole function becomes excessive. So get rid of rbd_init_watch_dev(), and call rbd_req_sync_watch() directly in the one place it's used.
Instead of getting rid of this loop, we should make it send a compound operation consisting of (CEPH_OSD_OP_ASSERT_VER, CEPH_OSD_OP_WATCH). Then we will get -ERANGE if our version of the header is out of data, so we don't lose header updates before the watch is established. Josh
