> ploop_check_delta_before_flip() takes the md_lock of a live BAT page
> and of the matching page of the lower delta before it compares them.
> When it finds a cluster both deltas map, it jumps to unmap past both
> unlocks: the cmd returns -EEXIST with the locks held and interrupts
> disabled, after freeing the page of the lower delta with its lock still
> taken. dmsetup comes back to userspace in atomic context, and the next
> pio touching that BAT page spins on its md_lock for good, a hard
> lockup.
> 
> A flip_upper_deltas message, with both deltas opened read-write, on a
> chain where the top delta overwrote a cluster of the lower one gets
> there. The ploop library does not: its reverse merge clears those
> entries in the lower delta before it flips, and a device it mounted has
> the lower delta read-only, which the flip refuses before the check.
> 
> Leave the scan only after both locks are dropped.
