... which deadlocks md. ;-) writeback_inodes_sb_nr is waiting for the
flusher thread to write back the dirty data. The flusher thread is
stuck in md_write_start, here:
wait_event(mddev->sb_wait,
!test_bit(MD_CHANGE_PENDING, &mddev->flags));
This is after reverting your change, and replacing the flush_disk call
in check_disk_size_change with a call to fsync_bdev. I'm not familiar
enough with md to really suggest a way forward. Neil?
Cheers,
Jeff
