[PATCH 002 of 29] md: Don't acknowlege that stripe-expand is complete until it really is.

From: NeilBrown
Date: Fri Jun 27 2008 - 02:51:02 EST



We shouldn't acknowledge that a stripe has been expanded (When
reshaping a raid5 by adding a device) until the moved data has
actually been written out. However we are currently
acknowledging (by calling md_done_sync) when the POST_XOR
is complete and before the write.

So track in s.locked whether there are pending writes, and don't
call md_done_sync yet if there are.

Note: we all set R5_LOCKED on devices which are are about to
read from. This probably isn't technically necessary, but is
usually done when writing a block, and justifies the use of
s.locked here.

This bug can lead to a crash if an array is stopped while an reshape
is in progress.
