commit 85f5a4d666 upstream.
There is a window between when RBD_DEV_FLAG_REMOVING is set and when
the device is removed from rbd_dev_list. During this window, we set
"already" and return 0.
Returning 0 from write(2) can confuse userspace tools because
0 indicates that nothing was written. In particular, "rbd unmap"
will retry the write multiple times a second:
10:28:05.463299 write(4, "0", 1) = 0
10:28:05.463509 write(4, "0", 1) = 0
10:28:05.463720 write(4, "0", 1) = 0
10:28:05.463942 write(4, "0", 1) = 0
10:28:05.464155 write(4, "0", 1) = 0

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
