Currently LinkHelper#getParent may return subclasses even if the parentType exists in the methods list. This makes the returned resource unpredictable as the method list does not have any guaranteed order.
To fix this, this patch tries to match parentType first, and only if it is not in the list it will fallback to a subclass.
In the bug the parent is
Vm
, but sinceBackup
also has a reference to theSnapshot
model it may be chosen over the suggestedparentType
because it's a subclass ofVm
