Subject: dm btree: fix bufio buffer leaks in dm_btree_del() error path

From: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com>

commit ed8b45a3679eb49069b094c0711b30833f27c734 upstream.

If dm_btree_del()'s call to push_frame() fails, e.g. due to
btree_node_validator finding invalid metadata, the dm_btree_del() error
path must unlock all frames (which have active dm-bufio buffers) that
were pushed onto the del_stack.

Otherwise, dm_bufio_client_destroy() will BUG_ON() because dm-bufio
buffers have leaked, e.g.:
  device-mapper: bufio: leaked buffer 3, hold count 1, list 0
