Radar: When double-tap the dimming view to dismiss the popover, it will also close modal view under

If you display a popover on a modal view, when performing multiple tap the dimmig view to close popover, modal view will also be closed not just popover.

Tapping dimming view calls the event handler(-[UIPopoverPresentationController#dimmingViewWasTapped:]).
The method calls presenting view controller's `dismissViewController:animated:completion:` method.
So the method called twice or more, `dismissViewController~` method is called multiple times, also close other views not just pop over.
