block: use topological sort for permission update
Rewrite bdrv_check_perm(), bdrv_abort_perm_update() and bdrv_set_perm() to update nodes in topological sort order instead of simple DFS. With topologically sorted nodes, we update a node only when all its parents already updated. With DFS it's not so. Consider the following example: A -+ | | | v | B | | v | C<-+ A is parent for B and C, B is parent for C. Obviously, to update permissions, we should go in order A B C, so, when we update C, all parent permissions already updated. But with current approach (simple recursion) we can update in sequence A C B C (C is updated twice). On first update of C, we consider old B permissions, so doing wrong thing. If it succeed, all is OK, on second C update we will finish with correct graph. But if the wrong thing failed, we break the whole process for no reason (it's possible that updated B permission will be less strict, but we will never check it). Also new approach gives a way to simultaneously and correctly update several nodes, we just need to run bdrv_topological_dfs() several times to add all nodes and their subtrees into one topologically sorted list (next patch will update bdrv_replace_node() in this manner). Test test_parallel_perm_update() is now passing, so move it out of debugging "if". We also need to support ignore_children in bdrv_parent_perms_conflict() For test 283 order of conflicting parents check is changed. Note also that in bdrv_check_perm() we don't check for parents conflict at root bs, as we may be in the middle of permission update in bdrv_reopen_multiple(). bdrv_reopen_multiple() will be updated soon.
