The commit db5e653d7c9f ("md: delay choosing sync action to
md_start_sync()") delays the start of the sync action. In a
clustered environment, this will cause another node to first
activate the spare disk and skip recovery. As a result, no
nodes will perform recovery when a disk is added or re-added.
Before db5e653d7c9f:
```
node1 node2
----------------------------------------------------------------
md_check_recovery
+ md_update_sb
| sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED
+ md_choose_sync_action process_metadata_update
| remove_and_add_spares //node1 has not finished adding
+ call mddev->sync_work //the spare disk:do nothing
md_start_sync
starts md_do_sync
md_do_sync
+ grabbed resync_lockres:DLM_LOCK_EX
+ do syncing job
md_check_recovery
sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED
process_metadata_update
//activate spare disk
... ...
md_do_sync
waiting to grab resync_lockres:EX
```
After db5e653d7c9f:
(note: if 'cmd:idle' sets MD_RECOVERY_INTR after md_check_recovery
starts md_start_sync, setting the INTR action will exacerbate the
delay in node1 calling the md_do_sync function.)
```
node1 node2
----------------------------------------------------------------
md_check_recovery
+ md_update_sb
| sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED
+ calls mddev->sync_work process_metadata_update
//node1 has not finished adding
//the spare disk:do nothing
md_start_sync
+ md_choose_sync_action
| remove_and_add_spares
+ calls md_do_sync
md_check_recovery
md_update_sb
sendmsg: METADATA_UPDATED
process_metadata_update
//activate spare disk
... ... ... ...
md_do_sync
+ grabbed resync_lockres:EX
+ raid1_sync_request skip sync under
conf->fullsync:0
md_do_sync
1. waiting to grab resync_lockres:EX
2. when node1 could grab EX lock,
node1 will skip resync under recovery_offset:MaxSector
```
How to trigger:
```(commands @node1)
# to easily watch the recovery status
echo 2000 > /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max
ssh root@node2 "echo 2000 > /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max"
mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -b clustered -n 2 /dev/sda /dev/sdb --assume-clean
ssh root@node2 mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sda /dev/sdb
mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sda --remove /dev/sda
mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdc
=== "cat /proc/mdstat" on both node, there are no recovery action. ===
```
How to fix:
because md layer code logic is hard to restore for speeding up sync job
on local node, we add new cluster msg to pending the another node to
active disk.

Commit 90f5f7ad4f38 ("md: Wait for md_check_recovery before attempting
device removal.") explained in the commit message that failed device
must be reomoved from the personality first by md_check_recovery(),
before it can be removed from the array. That's the reason the commit
add the code to wait for MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED.
However, this is not the case now, because remove_and_add_spares() is
called directly from hot_remove_disk() from ioctl path, hence failed
device(marked faulty) can be removed from the personality by ioctl.
On the other hand, the commit introduced a performance problem that
if MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is set and the array is not running, ioctl will
wait for 5s before it can return failure to user.
Since the waiting is not needed now, fix the problem by removing the
waiting.

The md driver wants to enforce a number of flags for all devices, even
when not inheriting them from the underlying devices. To make sure these
flags survive the queue_limits_set calls that md uses to update the
queue limits without deriving them form the previous limits add a new
md_init_stacking_limits helper that calls blk_set_stacking_limits and sets
these flags.

Move the nowait flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it can be set atomically with the queue frozen. Stacking drivers are simplified in that they now can simply set the flag, and blk_stack_limits will clear it when the features is not supported by any of the underlying devices.

Move the nonrot flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it can be set atomically with the queue frozen. Use the chance to switch to defaulting to non-rotational and require the driver to opt into rotational, which matches the polarity of the sysfs interface. For the z2ram, ps3vram, 2x memstick, ubiblock and dcssblk the new rotational flag is not set as they clearly are not rotational despite this being a behavior change. There are some other drivers that unconditionally set the rotational flag to keep the existing behavior as they arguably can be used on rotational devices even if that is probably not their main use today (e.g. virtio_blk and drbd). The flag is automatically inherited in blk_stack_limits matching the existing behavior in dm and md.

Move the cache control settings into the queue_limits so that the flags can be set atomically with the device queue frozen. Add new features and flags field for the driver set flags, and internal (usually sysfs-controlled) flags in the block layer. Note that we'll eventually remove enough field from queue_limits to bring it back to the previous size. The disable flag is inverted compared to the previous meaning, which means it now survives a rescan, similar to the max_sectors and max_discard_sectors user limits. The FLUSH and FUA flags are now inherited by blk_stack_limits, which simplified the code in dm a lot, but also causes a slight behavior change in that dm-switch and dm-unstripe now advertise a write cache despite setting num_flush_bios to 0. The I/O path will handle this gracefully, but as far as I can tell the lack of num_flush_bios and thus flush support is a pre-existing data integrity bug in those targets that really needs fixing, after which a non-zero num_flush_bios should be required in dm for targets that map to underlying devices.
