commit 3a653b205f29b3f9827a01a0c88bfbcb0d169494 upstream.

The following error ocurred when testing disk online/offline:

[ 301.798344] device-mapper: thin: 253:5: aborting current metadata transaction
[ 301.848441] device-mapper: thin: 253:5: failed to abort metadata transaction
[ 301.849206] Aborting journal on device dm-26-8.
[ 301.850489] EXT4-fs error (device dm-26) in __ext4_new_inode:943: Journal has aborted
[ 301.851095] EXT4-fs (dm-26): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 398742 at logical offset 181 with max blocks 19 with error 30
[ 301.854476] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in dm_bm_set_read_only+0x3a/0x40 [dm_persistent_data]

Reason is:

metadata_operation_failed
abort_transaction
dm_pool_abort_metadata
__create_persistent_data_objects
r = __open_or_format_metadata
if (r) --> If failed will free pmd->bm but pmd->bm not set NULL
dm_block_manager_destroy(pmd->bm);
set_pool_mode
dm_pool_metadata_read_only(pool->pmd);
dm_bm_set_read_only(pmd->bm); --> use-after-free

Add checks to see if pmd->bm is NULL in dm_bm_set_read_only and
dm_bm_set_read_write functions. If bm is NULL it means creating the
bm failed and so dm_bm_is_read_only must return true.
