When completing an overwrite bio ,in overwrite_endio(), the associated
migration should not be added to the 'completed_migrations' until the
bio's fields are restored with dm_unhook_bio().

Otherwise, do_worker() can race to process 'completed_migrations' before
dm_unhook_bio() -- so the bio's bi_end_io is incorrect.  This is
unlikely to cause any problems given the current code but should be
fixed on the basis of correctness.

Also, the cache's spinlock only needs to be held when manipulating the
'completed_migrations' list -- other changes don't need protection.
