- fix a 4.6-rc1 bio-based DM 'struct dm_target_io' leak in an error path
- stable@ fix for DM cache metadata's READ_LOCK macros that were
incorrectly returning error if the block manager was in read-only
mode; also cleanup multi-statement macros to use do {} while(0)
dm cache metadata: fix READ_LOCK macros and cleanup WRITE_LOCK macros
The READ_LOCK macro was incorrectly returning -EINVAL if
dm_bm_is_read_only() was true -- it will always be true once the cache
metadata transitions to read-only by dm_cache_metadata_set_read_only().
Wrap READ_LOCK and WRITE_LOCK multi-statement macros in do {} while(0).
Also, all accesses of the 'cmd' argument passed to these related macros
are now encapsulated in parenthesis.
A follow-up patch can be developed to eliminate the use of macros in
favor of pure C code. Avoiding that now given that this needs to apply
to stable@.
