dm thin metadata: don't issue prefetches if a transaction abort has failed
If a transaction abort has failed then we can no longer use the metadata device. Typically this happens if the superblock is unreadable. This fix addresses a crash seen during metadata device failure testing. Fixes: 8a01a6af75 ("dm thin: prefetch missing metadata pages") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.19+ Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
