3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Joe Thornber <ejt@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 9b1cc9f251affdd27f29fe46d0989ba76c33faf6 upstream. If a DM table is reloaded with an inactive table when the device is not suspended (normal procedure for LVM2), then there will be two dm-bufio objects that can diverge. This can lead to a situation where the inactive table uses bufio to read metadata at the same time the active table writes metadata -- resulting in the inactive table having stale metadata buffers once it is promoted to the active table slot. Fix this by using reference counting and a global list of cache metadata objects to ensure there is only one metadata object per metadata device.
