[Devel] [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.
