Subject: [PATCH md-6.9 03/10] md/raid1: fix choose next idle in read_balance()

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

Commit 12cee5a8a29e ("md/raid1: prevent merging too large request") add
the case choose next idle in read_balance():

read_balance:
 for_each_rdev
  if(next_seq_sect == this_sector || disk == 0)
  -> sequential reads
   best_disk = disk;
   if (...)
    choose_next_idle = 1
    continue;

 for_each_rdev
 -> iterate next rdev
  if (pending == 0)
   best_disk = disk;
   -> choose the next idle disk
   break;

  if (choose_next_idle)
   -> keep using this rdev if there are no other idle disk
   contine

However, commit 2e52d449bcec ("md/raid1: add failfast handling for reads.")
remove the code:

-               /* If device is idle, use it */
-               if (pending == 0) {
-                       best_disk = disk;
-                       break;
-               }

Hence choose next idle will never work now, fix this problem by
following:

1) don't set best_disk in this case, read_balance() will choose the best
   disk after iterating all the disks;
2) add 'pending' so that other idle disk will be chosen;
3) set 'dist' to 0 so that if there is no other idle disk, and all disks
   are rotational, this disk will still be chosen;
