3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Corey Wright <undefi...@pobox.com>
[3.18.y only, to fix a previous patch]
__dm_destroy() takes io_barrier SRCU lock (dm_get_live_table) twice
which leads to a deadlock. Remove taking lock before holding
suspend_lock to prevent a different potential deadlock.
Signed-off-by: Corey Wright <undefi...@pobox.com>
Fixes: e1db66a5fdcc ("dm: fix AB-BA deadlock in __dm_destroy()")
