3.16.7-ckt6 -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.
