NeilBrown 2a2275d630 [PATCH] md: fix potential memalloc deadlock in md ... If a GFP_KERNEL allocation is attempted in md while the mddev_lock is held, it is possible for a deadlock to eventuate. This happens if the array was marked 'clean', and the memalloc triggers a write-out to the md device. For the writeout to succeed, the array must be marked 'dirty', and that requires getting the mddev_lock. So, before attempting a GFP_KERNEL allocation while holding the lock, make sure the array is marked 'dirty' (unless it is currently read-only).
