Previously the SM feature check was done in two parts, fetch all the SM ref from the coordinator, and then fetch their information such as types and features from the coordinator basedon the refs. This can cause race conditions, where the previously fetched refs might have been deleted when we fetch the SM features. The deletion might happen due to the way SM registeration works for shared SRs such as GFS2, where each
PBD.plug
will trigger a deregister of existing SM and re-register (which will delete existing SMs), and create another (very likely) identical SM.To avoid this race, instead of fetch SM refs and their features separately, do this in one go so we get a consistent snapshot of the db state.
