hammer2 - Fix hammer2_chain and dedup issues
* Fix races in hammer2_chain_drop(). A concurrent re-reference of the
chain can race the dio teardown and generally cause havoc. Generally
fixed by acquiring the chain's mutex during the teardown.
* Due to mechanics changes in recent commits, chain data will always
be dropped prior to the last ref drop, so replace checks in the
lastdrop code with assertions that the chain data has already been
dropped. (Chain data is always dropped on the last unlock in order
to be able to release the struct buf).
* The last dedup change closed one timing hole but opened up another one.
There are two timing issues. One is the time gap between the allocation
of a block verses setting of bits in the DIO that indicate the block is
good for dedup. The second is the time gap between setting the bits and
actually populating the DIO with the de-dup data.
What could happen is that another thread could sneak in after the bits
are set but before the data is populated and match a dedup against old
previously freed data. The old data then gets wiped away by the new
data and the filesystem becomes corrupted.
Fixed by adding a second bitmap to the DIO. One indicates that the DIO
is valid from an allocation perspective, the second indicates that the
DIO is valid from a dedup perspective. The dedup is not allowed unless
both bitmaps indicate validity.
* Remove DIO dedup deletions in situations where a modified chain is
discarded or replaced. For example, if a file is deleted. The data,
in fact, is still perfectly dedupable since the underlying block
allocation remains intact.
