Subject: [GIT PULL REQUEST] md updates  for 3.20


Hi Linus,
 20 is a big number ... is it time for 4.0 yet :-)

 anyway, herewith is my pull request for 3.20.   It has been sitting in
 -next for a while, and Dan's scripts only found 2 bugs - now fixed.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

  md/raid10: fix conversion from RAID0 to RAID10 (2015-02-12 14:09:57 +1100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
md updates for 3.20

 - assorted locking changes so that access to /proc/mdstat
   and much of /sys/block/mdXX/md/* is protected by a spinlock
   rather than a mutex and will never block indefinitely.

 - Make an 'if' condition in RAID5 - which has been implicated
   in recent bugs - more readable.

 - misc minor fixes
