rbd: access snapshot context and mapping size safely
These fields may both change while the image is mapped if a snapshot
is created or deleted or the image is resized. They are guarded by
rbd_dev->header_rwsem, so hold that while reading them, and store a
local copy to refer to outside of the critical section. The local copy
will stay consistent since the snapshot context is reference counted,
and the mapping size is just a u64. This prevents torn loads from
giving us inconsistent values.
Move reading header.snapc into the caller of rbd_img_request_create()
so that we only need to take the semaphore once. The read-only caller,
rbd_parent_request_create() can just pass NULL for snapc, since the
snapshot context is only relevant for writes.
