block: set device_list.tqe_prev to NULL on BDS removal
This fixes a regression introduced with commit 3f09bfbc7. Multiple bugs arise in conjunction with live snapshots and mirroring operations (which include active layer commit). After a live snapshot occurs, the active layer and the base layer both have a non-NULL tqe_prev field in the device_list, although the base node's tqe_prev field points to a NULL entry. This non-NULL tqe_prev field occurs after the bdrv_append() in the external snapshot calls change_parent_backing_link(). In change_parent_backing_link(), when the previous active layer is removed from device_list, the device_list.tqe_prev pointer is not set to NULL. The operating scheme in the block layer is to indicate that a BDS belongs in the bdrv_states device_list iff the device_list.tqe_prev pointer is non-NULL. This patch does two things: 1.) Introduces a new block layer helper bdrv_device_remove() to remove a BDS from the device_list, and 2.) uses that new API, which also fixes the regression once used in change_parent_backing_link().
