[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 11/14] mirror: Fix potential use-after-free in active commit

[Kevin Wolf]

When starting an active commit job, other callbacks can run before
mirror_start_job() calls bdrv_ref() where needed and cause the nodes to
go away. Add another pair of bdrv_ref/unref() around it to protect
against this case.
