[PATCH] md: fix null-ptr-deference in md_free_disk()

From: Yu Kuai

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>

If md_run() failed after 'acitive_io' is initialized, then
percpu_ref_exit() is called in error path, however, later md_free_disk()
will call percpu_ref_exit() again, which lead to following
null-ptr-deference:

Since freeing mddev will exit 'active_io' unconditionally, fix the
problem by removing exiting 'active_io' from error path, this way
it will be delayed to free mddev.
