If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: NeilBrown commit 3991b31ea072b070081ca3bfa860a077eda67de5 upstream. If mddev->ro is set, md_to_sync will (correctly) abort. However in that case MD_RECOVERY_INTR isn't set. If a RESHAPE had been requested, then ->finish_reshape() will be called and it will think the reshape was successful even though nothing happened. Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is started, the reshape will be restarted. If the array is also set read-only at this point, the reshape will instantly appear to success, resulting in data corruption. Consequently, this patch is suitable for any -stable kernel.
