Subject: [PATCH 4.19 146/321] dm raid: fix false -EBUSY when handling check/repair message

From: Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 74694bcbdf7e28a5ad548cdda9ac56d30be00d13 ]

Sending a check/repair message infrequently leads to -EBUSY instead of
properly identifying an active resync.  This occurs because
raid_message() is testing recovery bits in a racy way.

Fix by calling decipher_sync_action() from raid_message() to properly
identify the idle state of the RAID device.
