RBD driver: support added for reverting a volume to the most recent
snapshot taken.
Please be aware of the following known issues with this operation
and the Ceph storage backend:
* Rolling back a volume to a snapshot overwrites the current volume
with the data from the snapshot, and the time it takes to complete
this operation increases with the size of the volume.
It is faster to create a new volume from a snapshot. You may
wish to recommend this option to your users whose use cases do not
strictly require revert-to-snapshot.
* The efficiency of revert-to-snapshot is also dependent upon the
Ceph storage backend in use, namely, whether or not BlueStore is
being used in your Ceph installation.
Please consult the Ceph documentation for details.
