Revert "ploop: push_backup must pass READs intact"
Patchset description:
ploop: push_backup: implement separate lockout tree
The patch set firstly reverts ALLOW_READS hack that was needed to
reuse plo->lockout_tree for push_backup needs, then adds new lockout
tree for push_backup needs: plo->lockout_pb_tree.
This solves an issue revealed by PSBM-47680: it is possible that
plo->lockout_tree is already occupied by a WRITE request waiting for ACK
from backup tool, but then the tool generates a READ request that wants
to occupy that slot already busy by the WRITE. See per-patch descriptions
for details
https://jira.sw.ru/browse/PSBM-47680

This patch description:
The patch reverts:
Subject: [PATCH rh7] ploop: push_backup must pass READs intact
If push_backup is in progress (doesn't matter "full" or "incremental") and
ploop state-machine detects incoming WRITE request to the cluster-block that
was not push_backup-ed yet, it suspends the request until userspace reports it
as "processed".
The above is fine, but while such a WRITE request is suspended, only
subsequent WRITEs (to given cluster-block) must be suspended too. READs must
not. Otherwise userspace backup tool will be blocked infinintely trying
to push_backup given cluster-block.
Passing READs while blocking WRITEs must be OK because: 1) ploop has not
finalized that first WRITE yet; 2) given cluster-block will be kept
intact (non-modified) while the WRITE is suspended.
