When block erases fail, these blocks are marked bad. The number of valid
blocks in the line was not updated, which could cause an infinite loop
on the erase path.

Fix this atomic counter and, in order to avoid taking an irq lock on the
interrupt context, make the erase counters atomic too.

I can't find out where the counters are used in irq context? Can you point me in the right direction? I'll prefer for these counters to go in under the existing line_lock.

Also, in the case that a significant number of blocks become bad in a
line, the result is the double shared metadata buffer (emeta) to stop
the pipeline until all metadata is flushed to the media. Increase the
number of metadata lines from 2 to 4 to avoid this case.

How does moving to 4 lines solve this case? The way I read it is that it only postpones when this occurs?
