dm-snapshot metadata corruption fix for bug introduced in 3.14-rc1, an
important refcount < 0 fix for the DM persistent data library's space
map metadata interface which fixes corruption reported by a few dm-thinp
users, and last but not least: more extensive fixes than ideal for
dm-thinp's data resize capability (which has had growing pain much like
we've seen from -ENOSPC handling of filesystems that mature). The end
result is dm-thinp now handles metadata operation failure and no data
space error conditions much better than before.
