Subject: [PATCH] dm cache policy smq: handle races with queuing
 background_work
Git-commit: 1e72a8e809f030bd4e318a49c497ee38e47e82c1
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
References: bsc#1093023

The background_tracker holds a set of promotions/demotions that the
cache policy wishes the core target to implement.

When adding a new operation to the tracker it's possible that an
operation on the same block is already present (but in practise this
doesn't appear to be happening).  Catch these situations and do the
appropriate cleanup.
