Joe Thornber 294710ddfc dm thin: fix passdown_double_checking_shared_status()
commit d445bd9cec upstream.

Commit 00a0ea33b4 ("dm thin: do not queue freed thin mapping for next
stage processing") changed process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt1() to
increment all the blocks being discarded until after the passdown had
completed to avoid them being prematurely reused.

IO issued to a thin device that breaks sharing with a snapshot, followed
by a discard issued to snapshot(s) that previously shared the block(s),
results in passdown_double_checking_shared_status() being called to
iterate through the blocks double checking their reference count is zero
and issuing the passdown if so.  So a side effect of commit 00a0ea33b4
is passdown_double_checking_shared_status() was broken.

Fix this by checking if the block reference count is greater than 1.
Also, rename dm_pool_block_is_used() to dm_pool_block_is_shared().

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.
