[PATCH 1/7] dm snapshot: fix kcopyd destructor

[Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>]

Before removing a snapshot, wait for the completion of any kcopyd jobs
using it.

Do this by maintaining a count (nr_jobs) of how many outstanding jobs
each kcopyd_client has.

The snapshot destructor first unregisters the snapshot so that no
new kcopyd jobs (created by writes to the origin) will reference 
that particular snapshot.   kcopyd_client_destroy() is now run next
to wait for the completion of any outstanding jobs before the snapshot
exception structures (that those jobs reference) are freed.
