[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 1/2] dm-ploop: fix a failed merge failing every later merge on the host

[Denis V. Lunev]

From: Denis V. Lunev <den at openvz.org>

ploop_process_merge_latest_snapshot() collects the status of its fake
merge pios in a function-local static. It is never reset and it is
shared by every ploop device, so once a single pio fails, every later
merge on any device stops after its first pio and returns that old
error, until the module is reloaded. A failure on one device also
aborts a merge running on another.

Keep the status on the stack. The pios carry a pointer to it, so the
function must not return while one of them is outstanding: every exit
already waits for service_pios to drain.

Fixes: 6ddad5a4d226 ("dm-ploop: Add ploop target driver")
