Subject: [PATCH 002 of 2] md: raid5: fix clearing of biofill operations


From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

ops_complete_biofill() runs outside of spin_lock(&sh->lock) and clears the
'pending' and 'ack' bits.  Since the test_and_ack_op() macro only checks
against 'complete' it can get an inconsistent snapshot of pending work.

Move the clearing of these bits to handle_stripe5(), under the lock.
