[PATCH 5.5 261/399] dm thin: dont allow changing data device during thin-pool reload

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 873937e75f9a8ea231a502c3d29d9cb6ad91b3ef ]

The existing code allows changing the data device when the thin-pool
target is reloaded.

This capability is not required and only complicates device lifetime
guarantees. This can cause crashes like the one reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1788596
where the kernel tries to issue a flush bio located in a structure that
was already freed.

Take the first step to simplifying the thin-pool's data device lifetime
by disallowing changing it. Like the thin-pool's metadata device, the
data device is now set in pool_create() and it cannot be changed for a
given thin-pool.
