There may exist NULL pointer dereference in config_item_name() when
one volume(say Volume A) unmounts while another(say Volume B) mounting.

     Volume A                          Volume B
already Mounted.
Unmounting, call
o2hb_heartbeat_group_drop_item()
  -> config_item_put(item)
  set reg(A)->item.ci_name to NULL
  in function config_item_cleanup().
                                    begin mounting, call
                                    o2hb_region_pin() and tranverse all
                                    regions. When reading 
                                    reg(A)->item.ci_name, it causes
                                    NULL pointer dereference.
call o2hb_region_release() and
del reg(A) from list.

So we should skip accessing regions that is going to release when
tranverse o2hb_all_regions.
