All updates that occur under STRIPE_ACTIVE should be globally visible
when STRIPE_ACTIVE clears.  test_and_set_bit() implies a barrier, but
clear_bit() does not.

This is suitable for 3.1-stable.

<title>md/raid5: abort any pending parity operations when array fails.</title>

<content type='text'>
When the number of failed devices exceeds the allowed number
we must abort any active parity operations (checks or updates) as they
are no longer meaningful, and can lead to a BUG_ON in
handle_parity_checks6.

This bug was introduce by commit 6c0069c0ae9659e3a91b68eaed06a5c6c37f45c8
in 2.6.29.

A pending cleanup will mean that module.h won't be implicitly
everywhere anymore.  Make sure the modular drivers in md dir
are actually calling out for &lt;module.h&gt; explicitly in advance.

<title>md: Fix some bugs in recovery_disabled handling.</title>

<id>d890fa2b0586b6177b119643ff66932127d58afa</id>
<content type='text'>
In 3.0 we changed the way recovery_disabled was handle so that instead
of testing against zero, we test an mddev-&gt; value against a conf-&gt;
value.
Two problems:
  1/ one place in raid1 was missed and still sets to '1'.
  2/ We didn't explicitly set the conf-&gt; value at array creation
     time.
     It defaulted to '0' just like the mddev value does so they
     could appear equal and thus disable recovery.
     This did not affect normal 'md' as it calls bind_rdev_to_array
     which changes the mddev value.  However the dmraid interface
     doesn't call this and so doesn't change -&gt;recovery_disabled; so at
     array start all recovery is incorrectly disabled.

So initialise the 'conf' value to one less that the mddev value, so
the will only be the same when explicitly set that way.

<content type='text'>
This bug was introduced in 415e72d034c50520ddb7ff79e7d1792c1306f0c9
which was in 2.6.36.

There is a small window of time between when a device fails and when
it is removed from the array.  During this time we might still read
from it, but we won't write to it - so it is possible that we could
read stale data.

We didn't need the test of 'Faulty' before because the test on
In_sync is sufficient.  Since we started allowing reads from the early
part of non-In_sync devices we need a test on Faulty too.

This is suitable for any kernel from 2.6.36 onwards, though the patch
might need a bit of tweaking in 3.0 and earlier.
