Li Lingfeng d483001206 dm thin metadata: Fix ABBA deadlock by resetting dm_bufio_client 
As described in commit 8111964f1b ("dm thin: Fix ABBA deadlock between
shrink_slab and dm_pool_abort_metadata"), ABBA deadlocks will be
triggered because shrinker_rwsem currently needs to held by
dm_pool_abort_metadata() as a side-effect of thin-pool metadata
operation failure.

The following three problem scenarios have been noticed:

1) Described by commit 8111964f1b ("dm thin: Fix ABBA deadlock between
   shrink_slab and dm_pool_abort_metadata")

2) shrinker_rwsem and throttle->lock

  shrink_slab
   down_read(&shrinker_rwsem)  - LOCK A
   do_shrink_slab

                                             down_write(&shrinker_rwsem)
                                             -- LOCK A

                    throttle_lock
                     down_read(&t->lock)  - LOCK B

3) shrinker_rwsem and wait_on_buffer

                              throttle_work_update
                               down_write(&t->lock) - LOCK B
                              process_deferred_bios
                               process_bio
                               commit
                                metadata_operation_failed
                                 dm_pool_abort_metadata
                                  dm_block_manager_create
                                   dm_bufio_client_create
                                    register_shrinker
                                     register_shrinker_prepared
                                      down_write(&shrinker_rwsem)  - LOCK A
                               bio_endio
      wait_on_buffer
       __wait_on_buffer

Fix these by resetting dm_bufio_client without holding shrinker_rwsem.
