    rbd: drop an unsafe assertion · 638c323c

    Olivier Bonvalet reported having repeated crashes due to a failed
    assertion he was hitting in rbd_img_obj_callback():
    
        Assertion failure in rbd_img_obj_callback() at line 2165:
    	rbd_assert(which >= img_request->next_completion);
    
    With a lot of help from Olivier with reproducing the problem
    we were able to determine the object and image requests had
    already been completed (and often freed) at the point the
    assertion failed.
    
    There was a great deal of discussion on the ceph-devel mailing list
    about this.  The problem only arose when there were two (or more)
    object requests in an image request, and the problem was always
    seen when the second request was being completed.
    
    The problem is due to a race in the window between setting the
    "done" flag on an object request and checking the image request's
    next completion value.  When the first object request completes, it
    checks to see if its successor request is marked "done", and if
    so, that request is also completed.  In the process, the image
    request's next_completion value is updated to reflect that both
    the first and second requests are completed.  By the time the
    second request is able to check the next_completion value, it
    has been set to a value *greater* than its own "which" value,
    which caused an assertion to fail.
    
    Fix this problem by skipping over any completion processing
    unless the completing object request is the next one expected.
    Test only for inequality (not >=), and eliminate the bad
    assertion.
