[PATCH 001 of 4] md: Fix issues with referencing rdev in md/raid1

From: NeilBrown
Date: Sun Aug 27 2006 - 19:46:51 EST



We need to be careful when referencing mirrors[i].rdev. so it can
disappear under us at various times.

So:
fix a couple of problem places.
comment a couple of non-problem places
move an 'atomic_add' which deferences rdev down a little
way to some where where it is sure to not be NULL.
