[PULL 3/6] block: bdrv_set_backing_bs: fix use-after-free

[Max Reitz]

From: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <address@hidden>

There is a use-after-free possible: bdrv_unref_child() leaves
bs->backing freed but not NULL. bdrv_attach_child may produce nested
polling loop due to drain, than access of freed pointer is possible.

I've produced the following crash on 30 iotest with modified code. It
does not reproduce on master, but still seems possible:
