dm era: commit metadata in postsuspend after worker stops

commit 9ae6e8b1c9 upstream.

During postsuspend dm-era does the following:

1. Archives the current era
2. Commits the metadata, as part of the RPC call for archiving the
   current era
3. Stops the worker

Until the worker stops, it might write to the metadata again. Moreover,
these writes are not flushed to disk immediately, but are cached by the
dm-bufio client, which writes them back asynchronously.

As a result, the committed metadata of a suspended dm-era device might
not be consistent with the in-core metadata.

In some cases, this can result in the corruption of the on-disk
metadata. Suppose the following sequence of events:

1. Load a new table, e.g. a snapshot-origin table, to a device with a
   dm-era table
2. Suspend the device
3. dm-era commits its metadata, but the worker does a few more metadata
   writes until it stops, as part of digesting an archived writeset
4. These writes are cached by the dm-bufio client
5. Load the dm-era table to another device.
6. The new instance of the dm-era target loads the committed, on-disk
   metadata, which don't include the extra writes done by the worker
   after the metadata commit.
7. Resume the new device
8. The new dm-era target instance starts using the metadata
9. Resume the original device
10. The destructor of the old dm-era target instance is called and
    destroys the dm-bufio client, which results in flushing the cached
    writes to disk
11. These writes might overwrite the writes done by the new dm-era
    instance, hence corrupting its metadata.

Fix this by committing the metadata after the worker stops running.

stop_worker uses flush_workqueue to flush the current work. However, the
work item may re-queue itself and flush_workqueue doesn't wait for
re-queued works to finish.

This could result in the worker changing the metadata after they have
been committed, or writing to the metadata concurrently with the commit
in the postsuspend thread.

Use drain_workqueue instead, which waits until the work and all
re-queued works finish.
