Ilya Dryomov 997255351a rbd: don't return 0 on unmap if RBD_DEV_FLAG_REMOVING is set
commit 85f5a4d666 upstream.

There is a window between when RBD_DEV_FLAG_REMOVING is set and when
the device is removed from rbd_dev_list.  During this window, we set
"already" and return 0.

Returning 0 from write(2) can confuse userspace tools because
0 indicates that nothing was written.  In particular, "rbd unmap"
will retry the write multiple times a second:

  10:28:05.463299 write(4, "0", 1)        = 0
  10:28:05.463509 write(4, "0", 1)        = 0
  10:28:05.463720 write(4, "0", 1)        = 0
  10:28:05.463942 write(4, "0", 1)        = 0
  10:28:05.464155 write(4, "0", 1)        = 0

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
