NeilBrown 1b9203bb4c md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places.
commit e2d5992522 upstream.

Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they
really should call freeze_array.
The former is only intended to be called from "make_request".
The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to
flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the
management thread.

Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock.  Using freeze_array
should not.

As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in
handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass
it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore.

The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits
050b66152f (raid10) and 6b740b8d79 (raid1) which
appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable
kernel since then.

This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and
will need to be applied by hand.
