[PATCH 1/2] md/raid10: fix taks hung in raid10d

commit fe630de009d0 ("md/raid10: avoid deadlock on recovery.") allowed
normal io and sync io to exist at the same time. Task hung will occur as
below:

T1 T2 T3 T4
raid10d
handle_read_error
allow_barrier
conf->nr_pending--
-> 0
//submit sync io
raid10_sync_request
raise_barrier
->will not be blocked
...
//submit to drivers
raid10_read_request
wait_barrier
conf->nr_pending++
-> 1
//retry read fail
raid10_end_read_request
reschedule_retry
add to retry_list
conf->nr_queued++
-> 1
//sync io fail
end_sync_read
__end_sync_read
reschedule_retry
add to retry_list
conf->nr_queued++
-> 2
...
handle_read_error
get form retry_list
conf->nr_queued--
freeze_array
wait nr_pending == nr_queued+1
->1 ->2
//task hung

retry read and sync io will be added to retry_list(nr_queued->2) if they
fails. raid10d() called handle_read_error() and hung in freeze_array().
nr_queued will not decrease because raid10d is blocked, nr_pending will
not increase because conf->barrier is not released.

Fix it by moving allow_barrier() after raid10_read_request().
raise_barrier() will wait for nr_waiting to become 0. Therefore, sync io
and regular io will not be issued at the same time.

We also removed the check of nr_queued. It can be 0 but don't need to be
blocked. MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING always is set after this patch, because all
sync io is waitting in raise_barrier(), remove it, too.
