Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] md/raid10: prevent unnecessary calls to wake_up() in fast path

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@...wei.com>

Currently, wake_up() is called unconditionally in fast path such as
raid10_make_request(), which will cause lock contention under high
concurrency:

raid10_make_request
 wake_up
  __wake_up_common_lock
   spin_lock_irqsave

Improve performance by only call wake_up() if waitqueue is not empty
in allow_barrier() and raid10_make_request().
