If you prepare_to_wait() after a previous prepare_to_wait(),
but before calling schedule(), you get warning:

  do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=2

This is appropriate as it is often a bug.  The event that the
first prepare_to_wait() expects might wake up the schedule following
the second prepare_to_wait(), which could be confusing.

However if both prepare_to_wait()s are part of simple wait_event()
loops, and if the inner one is rarely called, then there is
no problem.  The inner loop is too simple to get confused by
a stray wakeup, and the outer loop won't spin unduly because the
inner doesnt affect it often.

This pattern occurs in both raid1.c and raid10.c in the use of
flush_pending_writes().

The warning can be silenced by setting current->state to TASK_RUNNING.

flush_pending_writes isn't always called with block plug, so add it, and plug
works in nested way.

There are some lines could be removed due to recent
change for raid1 such as commit 3956df15d634 ("md:
move suspend_hi/lo handling into core md code").

Also, seems some comments are put to wrong place,
move them before wait_barrier.

If freeze_array is attempted in the middle of close_sync/
wait_all_barriers, deadlock can occur.

freeze_array will wait for nr_pending and nr_queued to line up.
wait_all_barriers increments nr_pending for each barrier bucket, one
at a time, but doesn't actually issue IO that could be counted in
nr_queued. So freeze_array is blocked until wait_all_barriers
completes and allow_all_barriers runs. At the same time, when
_wait_barrier sees array_frozen == 1, it stops and waits for
freeze_array to complete.

Prevent the deadlock by making close_sync call _wait_barrier and
_allow_barrier for one bucket at a time, instead of deferring the
_allow_barrier calls until after all _wait_barriers are complete.

Hi - I submit this patch for the next merge window:

Some times ago, I made a patch f9c79bc05a2a that blocks signals around the
schedule() calls in MD. The MD subsystem needs to do an uninterruptible
sleep that is not accounted in load average - so we block signals and use
interruptible sleep.

The kernel has a special TASK_IDLE state for this purpose, so we can use
it instead of blocking signals. This patch doesn't fix any bug, it just
makes the code simpler.

The '2' argument means "wake up anything that is waiting".
This is an inelegant part of the design and was added
to help support management of suspend_lo/suspend_hi setting.
Now that suspend_lo/hi is managed in mddev_suspend/resume,
that need is gone.
These is still a couple of places where we call 'quiesce'
with an argument of '2', but they can safely be changed to
call ->quiesce(.., 1); ->quiesce(.., 0) which
achieve the same result at the small cost of pausing IO
briefly.

This removes a small "optimization" from suspend_{hi,lo}_store,
but it isn't clear that optimization served a useful purpose.
The code now is a lot clearer.

responding to ->suspend_lo and ->suspend_hi is similar
to responding to ->suspended.  It is best to wait in
the common core code without incrementing ->active_io.
This allows mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() to work while
requests are waiting for suspend_lo/hi to change.
This is will be important after a subsequent patch
which uses mddev_suspend() to synchronize updating for
suspend_lo/hi.

So move the code for testing suspend_lo/hi out of raid1.c
and raid5.c, and place it in md.c

Motivated by the desire to illiminate the imprecise nature of
DM-specific patches being unnecessarily sent to both the MD maintainer
and mailing-list.  Which is born out of the fact that DM files also
reside in drivers/md/

Now all MD-specific files in drivers/md/ start with either "raid" or
"md-" and the MAINTAINERS file has been updated accordingly.

The check used here is to avoid conflict between write and
resync, however we used the wrong logic, it should be the
inverse of the checking inside "if".
