H A Dblock.cdiff dd4118c792a8c2a104fe90274e8a41e0db1ebc56 Mon May 13 08:46:17 CDT 2019 Alberto Garcia <berto@igalia.com> block: Use bdrv_unref_child() for all children in bdrv_close()

bdrv_unref_child() does the following things:

- Updates the child->bs->inherits_from pointer.
- Calls bdrv_detach_child() to remove the BdrvChild from bs->children.
- Calls bdrv_unref() to unref the child BlockDriverState.

When bdrv_unref_child() was introduced in commit 33a604075c it was not
used in bdrv_close() because the drivers that had additional children
(like quorum or blkverify) had already called bdrv_unref() on their
children during their own close functions.

This was changed later (in 0bd6e91a7e for quorum, in 3e586be0b2 for
blkverify) so there's no reason not to use bdrv_unref_child() in
bdrv_close() anymore.

After this there's also no need to remove bs->backing and bs->file
separately from the rest of the children, so bdrv_close() can be
simplified.

Now bdrv_close() unrefs all children (before this patch it was only
bs->file and bs->backing). As a result, none of the callers of
brvd_attach_child() should remove their reference to child_bs (because
this function effectively steals that reference). This patch updates a
couple of tests that were doing their own bdrv_unref().
