ceph: fix mds sync() race with completing requests
The wait_unsafe_requests() helper dropped the mdsc mutex to wait for each request to complete, and then examined r_node to get the next request after retaking the lock. But the request completion removes the request from the tree, so r_node was always undefined at this point. Since it's a small race, it usually led to a valid request, but not always. The result was an occasional crash in rb_next() while dereferencing node->rb_left. Fix this by clearing the rb_node when removing the request from the request tree, and not walking off into the weeds when we are done waiting for a request. Since the request we waited on will _always_ be out of the request tree, take a ref on the next request, in the hopes that it won't be. But if it is, it's ok: we can start over from the beginning (and traverse over older read requests again). Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
