Using {set,clear}_bit is more consistent than shifting and masking.

No functional change.

<title>md/raid10: always initialise -&gt;state on newly allocated r10_bio</title>

Most places which allocate an r10_bio zero the -&gt;state, some don't.
As the r10_bio comes from a mempool, and the allocation function uses
kzalloc it is often zero anyway.  But sometimes it isn't and it is
best to be safe.

I only noticed this because of the bug fixed by an earlier patch
where the r10_bios allocated for a reshape were left around to
be used by a subsequent resync.  In that case the R10BIO_IsReshape
flag caused problems.

<content type='text'>
When a raid10 commences a resync/recovery/reshape it allocates
some buffer space.
When a resync/recovery completes the buffer space is freed.  But not
when the reshape completes.
This can result in a small memory leak.

There is a subtle side-effect of this bug.  When a RAID10 is reshaped
to a larger array (more devices), the reshape is immediately followed
by a "resync" of the new space.  This "resync" will use the buffer
space which was allocated for "reshape".  This can cause problems
including a "BUG" in the SCSI layer.  So this is suitable for -stable.

raid10 reshape clears unwanted bits from a bio-&gt;bi_flags using
a method which, while clumsy, worked until 3.10 when BIO_OWNS_VEC
was added.
Since then it clears that bit but shouldn't.  This results in a
memory leak.

So change to used the approved method of clearing unwanted bits.

As this causes a memory leak which can consume all of memory
the fix is suitable for -stable.

<title>md/raid1,raid10: always abort recover on write error.</title>

<id>2446dba03f9dabe0b477a126cbeb377854785b47</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently we don't abort recovery on a write error if the write error
to the recovering device was triggerd by normal IO (as opposed to
recovery IO).

This means that for one bitmap region, the recovery might write to the
recovering device for a few sectors, then not bother for subsequent
sectors (as it never writes to failed devices).  In this case
the bitmap bit will be cleared, but it really shouldn't.

The result is that if the recovering device fails and is then re-added
(after fixing whatever hardware problem triggerred the failure),
the second recovery won't redo the region it was in the middle of,
so some of the device will not be recovered properly.

If we abort the recovery, the region being processes will be cancelled
(bit not cleared) and the whole region will be retried.

As the bug can result in data corruption the patch is suitable for
-stable.  For kernels prior to 3.11 there is a conflict in raid10.c
which will require care.

<title>md/raid10: call wait_barrier() for each request submitted.</title>

wait_barrier() includes a counter, so we must call it precisely once
(unless balanced by allow_barrier()) for each request submitted.

Since
commit 20d0189b1012a37d2533a87fb451f7852f2418d1
    block: Introduce new bio_split()
in 3.14-rc1, we don't call it for the extra requests generated when
we need to split a bio.

When this happens the counter goes negative, any resync/recovery will
never start, and  "mdadm --stop" will hang.

 "The major piece in here is the immutable bio_ve series from Kent, the
  rest is fairly minor.  It was supposed to go in last round, but
  various issues pushed it to this release instead.  The pull request

     here, just minor fixes and cleanups.

   - Fix for a memory leak in the error path in the block ioctl code
     from Christian Engelmayer.

   - Header export fix from CaiZhiyong.

   - Finally the immutable biovec changes from Kent Overstreet.  This
     enables some nice future work on making arbitrarily sized bios
     possible, and splitting more efficient.  Related fixes to immutable
     bio_vecs:

        - dm-cache immutable fixup from Mike Snitzer.
        - btrfs immutable fixup from Muthu Kumar.

  - bio-integrity fix from Nic Bellinger, which is also going to stable"
