[PATCH 4.18 269/350] dm zoned: fix various dmz_get_mblock() issues

From: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@wdc.com>

commit 3d4e738311327bc4ba1d55fbe2f1da3de4a475f9 upstream.

dmz_fetch_mblock() called from dmz_get_mblock() has a race since the
allocation of the new metadata block descriptor and its insertion in
the cache rbtree with the READING state is not atomic. Two different
contexts requesting the same block may end up each adding two different
descriptors of the same block to the cache.

Another problem for this function is that the BIO for processing the
block read is allocated after the metadata block descriptor is inserted
in the cache rbtree. If the BIO allocation fails, the metadata block
descriptor is freed without first being removed from the rbtree.

Fix the first problem by checking again if the requested block is not in
the cache right before inserting the newly allocated descriptor,
atomically under the mblk_lock spinlock. The second problem is fixed by
simply allocating the BIO before inserting the new block in the cache.

Finally, since dmz_fetch_mblock() also increments a block reference
counter, rename the function to dmz_get_mblock_slow(). To be symmetric
and clear, also rename dmz_lookup_mblock() to dmz_get_mblock_fast() and
increment the block reference counter directly in that function rather
than in dmz_get_mblock().
